The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway, his first, that portrays American and British expatriates who travel from Paris to the Festival of San Fermin in Pamplona to watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights. An early and enduring modernist novel, it received mixed reviews upon publication. However, Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers writes that it is now “recognized as Hemingway and s greatest work”, and Hemingway scholar Linda Wagner-Martin calls it his most important novel. The novel was published in the United States in October 1926 by Scribner and s. A year later, Jonathan Cape published the novel in London under the title Fiesta. It remains in print.
The novel is a roman à clef: the characters are based on real people in Hemingway and s circle, and the action is based on real events, particularly Hemingway and s life in Paris in the 1920s and a trip to Spain in 1925 for the Pamplona festival and fishing in the Pyrenees. Hemingway presents his notion that the “Lost Generation”—considered to have been decadent, dissolute, and irretrievably damaged by World War I—was in fact resilient and strong. Hemingway investigates the themes of love and death, the revivifying power of nature, and the concept of masculinity. His spare writing style, combined with his restrained use of description to convey characterizations and action, demonstrates his “Iceberg Theory” of writing.

Incridible edition, original language, small price
I have some problems to find a cheaper edition of this masterpiece. This novel is art, life and passion.ITA: Non riuscivo a trovare l’edizione in lingua originale di questo capolavoro, ma finalmente ce l’ho fatto. Il libro non credo necessiti spiegazioni: se non l’avete letto, compratelo. Soprattutto se avete fatto viaggi recenti tra Parigi e Pamplona
Hemingway allo stato puro
Una splendida descrizione della festa diPamplona, notti folli degli americani a Parigi, e tanto tanto alcol a fiumi, insomma, puro Hemingway
Ottimo acquisto.
Prodotto conforme alla descrizione, spedizione veloce.
Ottimo
Arrivato in pochissimo tempo, cercavo questo libro in lingua originale da tanto ma in Italia non era reperibile. Molto soddisfatta dell’acquisto
Upon closing The Sun Also Rises, I felt a neutral, pensive emotion wash over meâa sense that perhaps something had eluded me within the story’s layers. Ernest Hemingway’s celebrated iceberg theory is on full display, enriching the narrative with subtleties and implications that hint at deeper meanings beneath the surface.The narrative captures the essence of the post-World War I era, reflecting on the lives of those seeking to escape their world’s harsh realities. The depiction of a life unburdened by financial constraints offers a window into the pursuits and distractions of the “Lost Generation,” a term that resonates through Hemingway’s portrayal of his characters’ aimless wanderings.The Sun Also Rises is a complex work that leaves the reader grappling with its central themes. It’s a lesson in how not to choose and treat friends and an exploration of inner circles and personal integrity. The book’s complexity is akin to that of a deeply engaging film, offering a rich tapestry of interactions that challenge the observer to look beyond the surface.The book’s ending, where Jake returns to Brett following her summoning, stands out. This moment raises questions about the ideals of masculinity and commitment. Jake’s character, though seemingly dull, presents a profound reflection on personal sacrifice and adaptation. It prompts me to consider my life choices if faced with similar limitations.The Sun Also Rises sparked deep contemplation in me, particularly on toxic relationships and the elusiveness of truth, which seems to only surface in moments of inebriation. Jake’s travels and his attempts to find peace away from drama prompted profound reflections on my own life and the subtle but significant moments that shape our existence.Inspired by this classic, I am compelled to delve deeper into the world of classic fiction, possibly revisiting The Great Gatsby to compare thematic explorations. Hemingway’s work encourages a thoughtful engagement with the text, demanding a careful consideration of its every word and implication.The Sun Also Rises is not a book to be read once and forgotten, but a multifaceted experience that invites multiple readings. Its intricate construction and the masterful subtlety of Hemingway’s prose reveal new depths with each revisit, making it a compelling choice for those who enjoy thoughtful engagement with a text.
Hemingway has written a novel of great power that is revealed, slowly, as one turns from page to page. The characters seem at times to be almost fragile although (as his characters always are) fascinating and somewhat exotic.Now quickly approaching itâs 100th anniversary (2026), The Sun Also Rises is a captivating, tender but at times tragic tale of a small band of friends at the end of World War 1 who seek solace in each others company. Disillusioned by life in general (war in particular), they come together to explore post-war Europe spending considerable time in Paris before heading to Spain, to Pamplona, for the bull fights which proved to be, for me, perhaps the most interesting and telling part of the story.The Sun Also Rises is a powerful, beautifully crafted work of literature that enshrines Hemingway as a master among the greatest storytellers.
After decades of reading the classic The Old Man and The Sea I chanced to relish this book by my fav Hemingway well.
Livro em ótimo estado e entregue no prazo. Tudo perfeito. Obrigado.
