Masculinity study focusing on Hemingway’s thematic blurring of the boundaries between the masculine and the feminine. Dömötör examines Mr. Elliot’s failure at maintaining the façade of culturally prescribed manliness considering Mrs. Elliot’s lesbianism, concluding that “Hemingway’s American hero needs the support of women in understanding his manhood.”
