Description

New York: The Modern Library, 1930. Reprint. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. 8x5x0. 1944-53 printing, Toledano 170.1, binding/jacket style 8h, 306 titles on verso, 95 cent jacket price, grey Rockwell Kent endpapers. Near fine in very good jacket. Jacket edges a bit rubbed with small surface tear on rear panel (sticker removal?) and minimal loss from corners. 1930 Hard Cover. ix, 259 pp. Introduction by Henry Seidel Canby. The Sun Also Rises was Ernest Hemingway's first big novel, and immediately established Hemingway as one of the great prose stylists, and one of the preeminent writers of his time. It is also the book that encapsulates the angst of the post-World War I generation, known as the Lost Generation. This poignantly beautiful story of a group of American and English expatriates in Paris on an excursion to Pamplona represents a dramatic step forward for Hemingway's evolving style. Featuring Left Bank Paris in the 1920s and brutally realistic descriptions of bullfighting in Spain, the story is about the flamboyant Lady Brett Ashley and the hapless Jake Barnes. In an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love, and vanishing illusions, this is the Lost Generation.
