Description
For the centennial of its publication, a new edition of Hemingway’s classic novel of postwar disillusionment, featuring an introduction by Amor Towles, the multimillion-copy bestselling author of The Lincoln Highway, A Gentleman in Moscow, and Rules of Civility, and, special to this edition, thematically-related vignettes and short stories from Hemingway's collections In Our Time and Men Without Women
A Penguin Classic
It’s the early 1920s in Paris, and Jake, a wounded World War I veteran working as a journalist, is hopelessly in love with charismatic British socialite Lady Brett Ashley. Brett, however, settles for no one: an independent, liberated divorcée, all she wants out of life is a good time. When Jake, Brett, and a crew of their expatriate friends travel to Spain to watch the bullfights, both passions and tensions rise. Amid the flash and revelry of the fiesta, each of the men vies to make Brett his own, until Brett’s flirtation with a confident young bullfighter ignites jealousies that set their group alight.
This centennial edition of Hemingway’s beloved first novel includes the bullfighting vignettes from his 1924 collection, In Our Time, and some of his most widely-anthologized stories—“The Undefeated,” “In Another Country,” “Hills Like White Elephants,” “A Canary for One,” and “Now I Lay Me”—from his 1927 collection, Men Without Women.

Persons
Ernest Hemingway (1889-1961) wrote in a clear, spare, deceptively simple style that made him one of the most admired and imitated authors of the twentieth century. Born in Chicago, he traveled widely throughout his life, living in Italy, France, Spain, and Cuba, and reporting from the frontlines of World War I, the Spanish Civil War, and World War II. His best-known novels are The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Old Man and the Sea, which won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. A year later Hemingway won the Nobel Prize in Literature.
