Publisher's Synopsis
Ernest Hemingway has been referred to as one of the twentieth century's most influential writers. And those who have never read his works recognize the names of his works--novels like The Sun Also Rises and For Whom the Bell Tolls, or short stories like The Snows of Kilimanjaro. His most recent book, The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize for prose, as well as the Nobel Prize for Literature. With his distinctive pared-down sentences, Hemingway used language to create an innovative style, purposefully trying to set himself apart from those that had come before him.
inside you will read about From Journalist to War Hero, Bullfights and Book Deals, Hemingway's Breakthrough, Suicide in the Family, Hemingway During World War II, Pulitzer Prize, and Plane Crashes.
