Annotation
Suggests that Hemingway’s absence from fiction writing during World War II, along with his subsequent stylistic shift, resulted from the author’s matured perspective on the horrors of war and proximity to death. Meredith argues that Hemingway’s much maligned postwar novel, Across the River and into the Trees, marks what would have been a turning point for the author had he lived long enough to develop the self-reflective writing style it embodies.
