Publisher's Synopsis
Ernest Hemingway's masterwork The Sun Also Rises is a great example of his simple but forceful language. The story features two of Hemingway's most memorable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley, and takes a heartbreaking look at the disillusionment and angst of the postWorld War I age.Follow the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they travel with a colourful gang of exiles from the riotous nightlife of 1920s Paris to the horrific bullfighting rings of Spain. It is a time of moral bankruptcy, spiritual disintegration, unfulfilled love, and fading illusions. The Sun Also Rises, first published in 1926, helped Hemingway establish himself as one of the best writers of the twentieth century.
