Saturday Feb. 28th, 2015:
Update: After reading ten of his books, there's a pattern, or theme, of material that I find that he repeats quite often: the first world war, a man away from america in Italy or Spain, A writer in France, Bullfighting, heavy drinking, a woman he's in love with that is ambivalent towards him, and always concerned with the essence of manhood. I enjoy Hemingway's works quite much. He is consistently concerned with manhood, and what a man really does or really says or really thinks. In this way, I prefer him to Steinbeck, because Steinbeck seems to always have an ulterior motive in writing, usually to draw attention to the plight of the poor, or the laborer vs. the owner, or the down-trodden man. While interesting, it tends to get a bit much and heavy handed. Hemingway is not concerned with any of this, and he seems to be content with writing the simple truths of what a man is or is not in the world.
