Embarrassingly, I had never read this novel before, which is one reason why I chose it as one of my reads for Dana Huff's Book Challenge Books I Wish I Had Read in High School.My husband loves Hemingway. Let's just say, I grew to appreciate the storyline and his style. Lots of dialogue. A tad bit stream of consciousness. Man stories. Man desires.
As an English teacher, I did appreciate the symbolism of the bulls and the bull fighting. Really think the story was told on two levels.
Will I read Hemingway again? Of course! As that English teacher, I, again, am embarrassed to admit that I have read so little of Hemingway's works.
