Document Type
Article
Annotation
Argues that Hemingway’s anxieties regarding castration and emasculation, due to his own war injuries and his childhood upbringing as a twin to his older sister, prompted him to write The Sun Also Rises. Sees further influence from Tristram Shandy (1759), comparing Jake’s injury to Tristram’s accident.
