Ernest Hemingway witnessed many of the seminal conflicts of the twentieth century, as a Red Cross ambulance driver during the First World War and during his twenty-five years as a war correspondent. This edition offers an unparalleled portrayal of the physical and psychological impact of war and its aftermath. It contains extracts from A Farewell to Arms and For Whom the Bell Tolls, some of Hemingway's very best short stories, his only full-length play, The Fifth Column as well as selections from his wartime journalism. Hemingway on War represents the author's penetrating chronicles of perseverance and defeat, courage and fear, and love and loss in the midst of modern warfare.

High in the pine forests of the Spanish Sierra, a band of anti-fascist guerrilla prepares to blow up a strategically vital bridge. Robert Jordan, a young American volunteer, has been sent to handle the dynamiting. There, in the mountains, he finds the dangers and the intense comradeship of war. And there he discovers Maria, a young woman who has escaped from Franco's rebels.

«First published in 1926 and Ernest Hemingway's first major novel, The Sun Also Rises explores the world of the «Lost Generation» — a term coined by his friend Gertrude Stein — through the lives of a group of American expatriates in Europe after World War I. Jake Barnes, wounded in the war, is hopelessly in love with the aristocratic Brett Ashley, a woman who attracts and becomes involved with almost every man she meets. Barnes and his friends spend much of their time drinking and pursuing such excitements as the fiesta in Pamplona, having lost their optimism and sense of purpose. Hemingway's own circle of friends, including Stein, Ezra Pound, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and James Joyce, provided much of his inspiration. Writing in a terse, stripped-down style, first as a reporter and then a novelist, Hemingway was an enormously influential author from the 1920s through the 50s, and won both the Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes. J.D. Salinger, Hunter S. Thompson, Charles Bukowski, and Jack Kerouac all acknowledged their indebtedness to him, as did non-authors like artist Edward Hopper, whose Nighthawks at the Diner was inspired in part by Hemingway's short stories.»

Inspired by Hemingway's adventures as a newspaper correspondent in Spain in the 1930s, The Fifth Column and Four Stories of the Spanish Civil War magnificently evokes life in a besieged city over a tumultuous decade. Featuring the author's only full-length play, the works recount decadent parties and doomed love affairs amid the rubble, and effortlessly capture the devastating effects of the war on the inhabitants of the city.

Hemingway's memories of his life as an unknown writer living in Paris in the twenties are deeply personal, warmly affectionate and full of wit. Looking back not only at his own much younger self, but also at the other writers who shared Paris with him — James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald — he recalls the time when, poor, happy and writing in cafes, he discovered his vocation. Written during the last years of Hemingway's life, his memoir is a lively and powerful reflection of his genius that scintillates with the romance of the city.

Published posthumously in 1964, A Moveable Feast remains one of Ernest Hemingway's most beloved works. Since Hemingway's personal papers were released in 1979, scholars have examined and debated the changes made to the text before publication. Now this new special restored edition presents the original manuscript as the author prepared it to be published. Featuring a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, Ernest's sole surviving son, and an introduction by the editor and grandson of the author, Sean Hemingway, this new edition also includes a number of unfinished, never-before-published Paris sketches revealing experiences that Hemingway had with his son Jack and his first wife, Hadley. Also included are irreverent portraits of other luminaries, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Madox Ford, and insightful recollections of his own early experiments with his craft. Sure to excite critics and readers alike, the restored edition of A Moveable Feast brilliantly evokes the exuberant mood of Paris after World War I and the unbridled creativity and unquenchable enthusiasm that Hemingway himself epitomised.

Un écrivain désabusé voyage en Floride avec une femme beaucoup plus jeune que lui: ils vont au restaurant, boivent un verre, parlent de la guerre d'Espagne, de leur vie, d'avenir et font l'amour... Soudain tout se trouble, le soupçon de l'inceste rôde, les difficultés à écrire et à vivre ressurgissent et, avec elles, l'inexorable fatalité.

In 1918 Ernest Hemingway failed a vision test to become a soldier, and instead volunteered for ambulance service on the Italian front, where he was wounded and twice decorated. Recuperating in Milan, he fell in love with an American nurse, and his experiences became the basis for this novel, which Vita Sackville-West called a most beautiful, moving and human book. Writing in a terse, stripped-down style, first as a reporter and then a novelist, Hemingway was an enormously influential author from the 1920s through the 50s, and won both the Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes. J.D. Salinger, Hunter S. Thompson, Charles Bukowski, and Jack Kerouac all acknowledged their indebtedness to him, as did non-authors like artist Edward Hopper, whose Nighthawks at the Diner was inspired in part by Hemingway's short stories.

In these early Hemingway stories, which are partly autobiographical, men and women of passion live, fight, love and die in scenes of dramatic intensity. They range from haunting tragedy on the snow-capped peak of Kilimanjaro, to brutal America with its deceptive calm, and war-ravaged Europe.

Green Hills of Africa is Ernest Hemingway's lyrical journal of a month on safari in the great game country of East Africa, where he & his wife Pauline journeyed in December 1933. Hemingway's well-known interest in — & fascination with — big-game hunting is magnificently captured in this evocative account of his trip. It is an examination of the lure of the hunt & an impassioned portrait of the glory of the African landscape & of the beauty of a wilderness that was, even then, being threatened by the incursions of man.

Begun in the autumn of 1957 and published posthumously in 1964, this short book looks back to what it meant to be young and poor and writing in Paris during the 1920s. A correspondent for the Toronto Star, Hemingway arrived in Paris in 1921 — Braque and Picasso were experimenting with cubist forms; James Joyce had just completed Ulysses; and Gertude Stein held court at 27 rue de Fleurus, and deemed young Ernest a member of rue génération perdue. It was during these years that the yet-unpublished young writer gathered the material for The Sun Also Rises, and the subsequent masterpieces that followed. Writing in a terse, stripped-down style, first as a reporter and then a novelist, Hemingway was an enormously influential author from the 1920s through the 50s, and won both the Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes. J.D. Salinger, Hunter S. Thompson, Charles Bukowski, and Jack Kerouac all acknowledged their indebtedness to him, as did non-authors like artist Edward Hopper, whose Nighthawks at the Diner was inspired in part by Hemingway's short stories.

Including all of Hemingway's shorter fiction, this collection is introduced by the poet James Fenton. The stories touch on the same themes as his novels: war, love, the nature of heroism, renunciation and the writer's life. They are arranged chronologically.
