About the Books
Ernest Hemingway stands among the most influential American writers of the twentieth century, and this seven-book hardcover collection captures the breadth of his career across fiction, short stories, and memoir. A Farewell to Arms follows an American ambulance driver and an English nurse whose romance unfolds amid the chaos of the Italian front during World War I. The Old Man and the Sea tells the spare, towering story of an aging Cuban fisherman locked in a days-long battle with a giant marlin, the novella that helped earn Hemingway the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and was cited when he won the Nobel Prize in Literature. The Sun Also Rises follows disillusioned American and British expatriates drifting from Paris to the running of the bulls in Pamplona. In Our Time, Hemingway's early short story collection, introduces recurring character Nick Adams and establishes the terse style that would define his career. Green Hills of Africa is a nonfiction account of a month-long East African safari, blending adventure writing with reflections on the craft of fiction. For Whom the Bell Tolls, set during the Spanish Civil War, follows an American dynamiter tasked with destroying a strategic bridge behind enemy lines. A Moveable Feast, published posthumously, is Hemingway's memoir of his formative years as a young writer among the expatriate artists of 1920s Paris. Together, these seven hardcover volumes trace Hemingway's evolution from short story writer to novelist to memoirist, offering a rewarding introduction to one of literature's most distinctive voices.
