Write Up Containing Books The Nick Adams Stories

What a wonderful way to read these stories; you do appreciate them in a different way in sequence. The biggest surprise was "Last Good Country," an unfinished novella that's kind-of like Hemingway's attempt at a children's adventure story, that he stops writing just before it turns dark. I'd read "Father and Sons" before and it's just as haunting as I remember. It also prove how little was "simple" about Hemingway style.

In reality Ernest Hemingway was a total Eeyore. Everything he writes is depressing and boring. It's crazy that every one applauds him as being such a realist. I feel sorry for anyone who sees life in that way.I guess it's fine if you read a little Hemingway to broaden your horizons. Just be sure to read
