Annotation
Arguing against criticism dismissing the importance of Hemingway’s World War I experiences on his later fiction, Stewart examines the profound effects of war looming below the surface of “Big Two-Hearted River.” Asserts that in this story and others such as “In Another Country” and “Now I Lay Me,” Hemingway fictionalizes his own struggle with returning to daily life after the traumatic experience of war.
