after WWI there came a generation of men who drank to much and made terrible life choices.
review:
This is not for the uninitiated reader the style is not what I would call easy reading, it is the novel that made Hemingway into the legend of "great American author" that he is today. The style of writing is a bit difficult to get used to but once you have adjusted is a lot of fun to read, very colloquial and a bit disjointed, it is very fitting for the amount of alcohol consumed between the pages. That said this is an entertaining read, the plot is pretty swell and the characters are all swell people. I also enjoyed the language used in the novel, it is just swell. you will love and you will be annoyed with the characters, but they will stick with you. I recommend this to anyone who genuinely enjoys reading.
6/10
