I think this collection of short stories is perhaps the best single example of Hemingway's writing. As much as I love his novels I think his style is even better suited for short stories, and this collection has just about all of his short works. The stories cover a broad range of typical Hemingway adventures, including bullfighting, fishing, hunting, and of course, heavy drinking. Some of the better stories are really nothing more than a conversation between two friends travelling or a man out to go fishing. Although they may seem simple, its his distinctive writing style that really make them so special. I'll never get tired of this book.
