The Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway: The Hemingway Library Collector's Edition

The fourth in the series of new annotated editions of Ernest Hemingway€s work, edited by the author€s grandson Se¡n and introduced by his son Patrick, this collection includes the best of the well-known classics as well as unpublished stories, early drafts, and notes that provide fascinating insight into the writing process of one of America€s greatest storytellers.

Ernest Hemingway is a cultural icon€"an archetype of rugged masculinity, a romantic ideal of the intellectual in perpetual exile€"but, to his countless readers, Hemingway remains a literary force much greater than his image. Of all of Hemingway€s canonical fictions, perhaps none demonstrate so forcefully the power of the author€s revolutionary style as his short stories. In classics like €œHills like White Elephants,€ €œThe Snows of Kilimanjaro,€ and €œThe Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber,€ Hemingway shows us great literature compressed to its most potent essentials. We also see, in Hemingway€s short fiction, the tales that created the legend: these are stories of men and women in love and in war and on the hunt, stories of a lost generation born into a fractured time.

This Collector's Edition of The Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway presents many of Hemingway€s most famous classics alongside rare and unpublished material: Hemingway€s early drafts and correspondence, his dazzling out-of-print essay on the art of the short story, and two marvelous examples of his earliest work--his first published story, €œThe Judgment of Manitou,€ which Hemingway wrote when still a high school student, and a never-before-published story, written when the author was recovering from a war injury in Milan after WWI. Edited by Ernest Hemingway€s grandson, Se¡n Hemingway, with an introduction by the author€s only surviving son, Patrick Hemingway, this Library Edition offers vital insight into the artistic development of one of the twentieth century€s greatest writers. It is a perfect introduction for a new generation of Hemingway readers, and it is a vital edition in the collection of any true Hemingway fan.
