Annotation
Explores the Christian themes of The Garden of Eden by scrutinizing its use of biblical motifs in comparison to Fitzgerald’s Tender Is the Night (1934). Delving into their biographies as a way of evaluating their works, Jackson writes, “In his Garden, it is evident, Hemingway is self-consciously attempting to rewrite both scripture and Tender, as well as to rethink his own and Fitzgerald’s marriages.”
