In Our Time
In Our Time | Ernest Hemingway
THIS COLLECTION OF SHORT STORIES AND VIGNETTES MARKED ERNEST HEMINGWAY'S AMERICAN DEBUT AND MADE HIM FAMOUS When In Our Time was published in 1925, it was praised by Ford Madox Ford, John Dos Passos, and F. Scott Fitzgerald for its simple and precise use of language to convey a wide range of complex emotions, and it earned Hemingway a place beside Sherwood Anderson and Gertrude Stein among the most promising American writers of that period. In Our Time contains several early Hemingway classics, including the famous Nick Adams stories "Indian Camp," "The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife," "The Three Day Blow," and "The Battler," and introduces readers to the hallmarks of the Hemingway style: a lean, tough prose -- enlivened by an car for the colloquial and an eye for the realistic that suggests, through the simplest of statements, a sense of moral value and a clarity of heart. Now recognized as one of the most original short story collections in twentieth-century literature, In Our Time provides a key to Hemingway's later works.

In Our Time | Ernest Hemingway

I really like Hemingway, but this book (for me at least) gets less interesting in the 2nd half, particularly the trout fishing short story.

“If I can‘t have long hair or any fun, I can have a cat.”

I‘m working on a Hemingway audiobook right now for work (much of it difficult to read honestly) but this made me laugh.

Moony What a great quote. I want a cat. 😉 3y

I finally watched the first episode of the Ken Burns Hemingway Doc last night. Young Hemingway was definitely a heartbreaker and handsome before his infamous mustache addition. I‘ve only read his short stories and The Old Man and the Sea. Now I am really feeling the need to read his longer novels. #kenburns #documentary @Kimberlone

Kimberlone I haven‘t read too much more than you, just a farewell to arms and for whom the bell tolls but I really want to read the Sun also rise and a moveable feast now! 3y

I love charm beads almost as much as books. This stack of sterling silver books is brand new and available on November 27th from http://www.ohmbeads.com.tw/library.html in case anyone has a book lover to shop for ( Jon Snow knows some things now that he‘s started reading )

#SummersEndReadathon. I'm well on my way with the readathon. Started and finished Hemingway's In Our Time. Finished Of Books and Bagpipes by Paige Shelton. And am listening to Rules of Magic by Alice Hoffman.

Thank you @Ddzmini !!! I can‘t wait to read your recommendation “In Our Time”; it will be protected in the booksleeve! I‘ve been wanting to read “Lost in a Book”, my fav fairy tale; and Kidnapped, huge fan of Stevenson and classics! Some chocolate is already consumed and the tea went to work! The oldbook tote will graciously hold my purchases!

Confession: I love the bachelor/bachelorette tv show! I know it problematic but I‘ve been watching it for almost the beginning since I was really young and I just can‘t get enough! But I‘m reading during the commercial breaks!!

Some of the stories were thought provoking, but just as many did not hold my interest.

I miss having tons of #reading time. Since starting my Masters my free time basically disappeared! And although I'm majoring in literature, it's not the same reading something just for cheer pleasure than for school work. That,while working a full time job ( which I'm very thankful for!) is not easy. Rant over.

First #24in48 book down--the next pick for the @RoscoeBooks classics book club. I've always been a Hemingway fan and this short story collection is no exception! A quick read and a great set of short stories. #readathon
