Product Description

Review

"'He can perform prodigies. He can fascinate us by pure evocation, by the tensity of the situation' - Times Literary Supplement; 'Hemingway's style, at its best, is a superb vehicle for revealing tenderness of feeling beneath descriptions of brutality' - Guardian"

Product Description

The Essential Hemingway is the perfect introduction to the astonishing, wide-ranging body of work by the Nobel Prize-winning author. This impressive collection includes: the full text of Fiesta, Hemingway's first major novel; long extracts from three of his greatest works of fiction, A Farewell to Arms, To Have and Have Not and For Whom the Bell Tolls; twenty-five complete short stories; and the breathtaking Epilogue to Death in the Afternoon.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Book!, 27 Sep 2003
This is an excellent selection of Hemingway's work. It includes his best novel, 'Fiesta', plus snippets from others; 'A Farewell to Arms', and 'For Whom the Bell Tolls'. But for me it has always been the short stories which shine and they are here too. I can bever tire of reading the likes of 'The Killers' and 'Hills Like White Elephants', which in so few words evoke such great atmosphere and observe so very naturally upon humanity. The dialogue throughout his writing is quick and believable, and his gift for description famously precise. I treasure my copy of this book. I think it is excellent value as timeless and easily accessible literature. Buy it and let it become for years your trusty, dog-eared travel companion.
