Annotation
Studies Hemingway’s revision of the era’s conventional travel writing genre to depict authentically the horrors and chaos of modern warfare. De Biasio focuses on Hemingway’s employment of omission to describe the tourist-like activities that Frederic and Catherine engage in throughout the novel, concluding that his treatment not only protests the traditional view of war as a patriotic and heroic endeavor but also illustrates the disillusionment of the Lost Generation.
