Annotation
Treats Hemingway’s extensive references to food and drink (alcohol), along with those who eat and drink, in his short stories, novels, and nonfiction, including The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, Death in the Afternoon, To Have and Have Not, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Across the River and into the Trees, The Old Man and the Sea, and The Garden of Eden. Argues that had Hemingway not felt these allusions relevant to the text’s larger themes, he would have eliminated them.
