Collection of mostly previously published essays analyzing Hemingway’s contributions to the short story genre ranging from well-known stories such as “Indian Camp” and “Big Two-Hearted River” to the critically neglected “The Mercenaries” and “Banal Story.” Monteiro explores Hemingway’s iconic writing style and familiar themes such as love, war, hunting, and bullfighting along with commentary on each story’s critical reception and influence on later writers. Includes notes, critical bibliography, and index. See annotation for significantly expanded essay below.
