rating:
This book was a real downer. I think Hemingway wrote it as a recovery from all the horrible things he'd seen during the war and the depressing scenarios he'd come across afterwards. Seriously, every story in the book either describes someone's death--physical or emotional--during war, the failed attempt at slaughtering a bull during a bullfight, or how men can't fit into normal society any more.
On a high note, it does give some sense of what man loses--besides lives--during war.
