Hemingway

Three words that I would use to describe Hemingway's stories are timeless, effortless, intriguing, and entertaining. I feel as if it would be both ironic and inappropriate to write a long-winded blog entry about Hemingway's stories because he was so talented when it came to keeping his thoughts brief concise, so I'm going to keep it short. I have to admit that my favorite short stories in his collection were The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber and A Clean Well-Lighted Place because of how he constantly thought out of the box and forced the reader to think about all of the messages in between the lines with his Iceberg Theory.
