This is a collection of essays from Hemingway scholar Robert Gajdusek. Gajdusek attempts to shift attention away from Hemingway's adventurous life and toward the intricate and demanding modernist texts he wrote. He traces outside influences on Hemingway during his time in Paris in the early 1920s. Among his close friends and associates at the time were James Joyce, Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, Ford Madox Ford and F. Scott Fitzgerald - he was very much a part of the heady movements and intellectual idealism of his era. These essays, while occasionally pointing out Hemingway's special intellectual journey, focus primarily on the texts themselves, working to bring to light the fascinating and highly intricate structures and designs that embed Hemingway's philosophy and message at unexpected levels.
