This is a narration of the classic book The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway.

This 1923 In Our Time collection consists of 18 vignettes. Five center on World War I (Chapters 1, 4, 5, 7, 8), and six on bullfighting (Chapters 2 and 12 to 16); the others center around news stories. Chapter 10 is the longest; it details a soldier's affair with a Red Cross nurse, and is based on Hemingway's relationship with Agnes von Kurowsky. The piece about a robbery and murder in Kansas City originated in a newspaper story Hemingway covered as a cub reporter at The Kansas City Star; it is followed by the story of the public hanging of a Chicago mobster.

First published in 1925, when Hemingway was an unknown writer, this collection catapulted him into the literary world and gained him recognition as a highly talented, up-and-coming American writer. Containing many early Hemingway classics, including the famous Nick Adams stories, In Our Time introduces us to the hallmarks of the famous Hemingway style: a sparse, taut prose brought to life by vivid characters, landscape, and flashes of beauty.

Ernest Hemingway's first book—Three Stories & Ten Poems—announced the arrival of one of the 20th century's most revered and admired writers. In this brief collection, published in 1923, Hemingway introduces two styles of writing: his unique, famously austere, and unadorned prose style as well as his early attempts at verse. The three stories are "Up in Michigan", "Out of Season", and "My Old Man", each of which takes place in locales that regular audiences of Hemingway will find familiar: the great outdoors, the Italian countryside, and the racetrack

Válečný román uchvacující další a další generace čtenářů. Velká válka zasáhla nejen Evropu, ale i Ameriku. Řada amerických dobrovolníků spěchala na evropská bojiště, mezi nimi i Ernest Hemingway. Své zážitky z italské fronty popsal v románu "Sbohem, armádo!" z roku 1929. Zachytil v něm příběh milostného vzplanutí amerického poručíka Frederika k anglické ošetřovatelce Catherine a současně rozpad dříve stabilních jistot. Více než samotný obraz války Hemingwaye zajímá osud konkrétního člověka, to, jak se mění v neznámých ohrožujících podmínkách a zda je schopen opravdové lásky.
