Athmar Moosa atm_moosa517e — It was recommended I find a Fitzgerald translation of this.

Greg Lam greglamillustrations — As this is the first Hemingway material I've read since high school, I don't quite know how representative of Hemingway's more famous works The Snows of Kilimanjaro is. There's a really strong masculine despair present in almost all of these short stories, and (fulfilling the stereotype) an unmistakable American Weltanschauung. The story about trout-fishing, Big Two-Hearted River: Part II is beyond skillful, but my favorite was Soldier's Home, a very believable vignette of a WWI veteran returning home to Oklahoma a shattered soul. On the downside, too many of the male characters are named Nick, making for confusion. Probably there was artistic intent there, but it escapes me. At the end of the day, more of these stories were forgettable than memorable. Three Favorite Passages 1. "'You don't have to destroy me. Do you? I'm only a middle-aged woman who loves you and wants to do what you want to do. I've been destroyed two or three times already. You wouldn't want to destroy me again, would you?' 'I'd like to destroy you a few times in bed,' he said. 'Yes. That's the good destruction. That's the way we're made to be destroyed." 2. "He did not want any consequences. He did not want any consequences ever again. He wanted to live along without consequences. Besides he did not really need a girl. The army had taught him that. It was all right to pose as though you had to have a girl. Nearly everybody did that. But it wasn't true. You did not need a girl. That was the funny thing. First a fellow boasted how girls meant nothing to him, then a fellow boasted that he could not get along without girls, that he had to have them all the time, that he could not go to sleep without them. That was all a lie. It was all a lie both ways. You did not need a girl unless you thought about them. He learned that in the army. Then sooner or later you always got one. You did not have to think about it. Sooner or later it would come. He had learned that in the army." 3. "Nick was hungry. He did not believe he had ever been hungrier. He opened and emptied a can of pork and beans and a can of spaghetti into the frying pan. 'I've got a right to eat this kind of stuff, if I'm willing to carry it,' Nick said. His voice sounded strange in the darkening woods. He did not speak again."

Erlina Chang erlinachang — Sequel to the The Book of the Dun Cow. Excrutiatingly sad. Written as if for kids, but it traumatized me, and depressed me, but also made me think harder about how I live my life. And I desperately loved some of the new characters.
