In Our Time (AmazonClassics Edition)

De: Ernest Hemingway

Narrado por: James Lurie

The 1925 New York edition of Ernest Hemingway’s In Our Time trails listeners through the years before, during, and after World War I.

The collection’s first two stories, “Indian Camp” and “The Doctor and the Doctor’s Wife,” introduce Hemingway’s semiautobiographical character Nick Adams as a child. In total, seven stories portray the young man’s coming of age. All fourteen, including interspersed vignettes, embody the themes that Hemingway would return to throughout his career: alienation, grief, loss, and separation, as well as the regenerative powers of nature.

With the hard, lean prose that would become Hemingway’s hallmark, In Our Time heralded an experimental new direction in American fiction.

Revised edition: Previously published as In Our Time, this edition of In Our Time (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

I love the writing style and the points made, but it's difficult to keep up with characters.
