About this ebook

First published in 1923, “Three Stories and Ten Poems” marked the beginning of the fictional writing career of one of the world’s most famous writers, Ernest Hemingway. This short collection is marked by the story “Out of Season” in which Hemingway employed autobiographical elements and his “theory of omission” or the “iceberg theory”. Also included here in this edition is Hemingway’s first novella, “The Torrents of Spring”. Appearing a few months before his more commercially successful novel “The Sun Also Rises”, this novella was first published in 1926. The story is set in Michigan and concerns the love lives of two men who work in a factory together. Both are seeking the perfect wife and both have varying degrees of success in their endeavors. These romantic dramas are a comical premise however, and Hemingway spends the bulk of the book making fun of the popular writers of his day in hilarious and witty fashion. Written as a parody of Sherwood Anderson’s “Dark Laughter”, Hemingway also spoofs the works of James Joyce, John Dos Passos, and D. H. Lawrence. Together these works show the early development of one of the most notable authors of the twentieth century.

Author

Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer of his time. Publication of The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century. His classic novel The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. Hemingway was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. His life and accomplishments are explored in-depth in the PBS documentary film from Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, Hemingway. Known for his larger-than-life personality and his passions for bullfighting, fishing, and big-game hunting, he died in Ketchum, Idaho on July 2, 1961.
