After watching Ken Burns' documentary, Hemingway, I have begun revisiting his short stories. I am a big fan of the stories featuring Nick Adams. Big Two-Hearted River is a one of his best known.

It is a quiet story where not much happens, but the contentment of the character shines through the writing, and the reader is transported to both the place and into the same mood.
