Economic Power and the Female Expatriate Consumer Artist in The Garden of Eden
Document Type
Book Chapter
Annotation
Examines Catherine Bourne through a feminist lens to reveal Hemingway’s critique of society’s oppression and denigration of women artists and the rampant misogyny in both the male dominated literary marketplace and Western culture. Sees The Sun Also Rises as an early precursor of the more pronounced masculine and feminine exchange economies found in The Garden of Eden, with Brett paying the price for her gender and sexual transgressions.
