The Essential Hemingway





An unmissable compendium and ideal introduction to one of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.

The Essential Hemingway is the perfect introduction to the astonishing, wide-ranging body of work by the Nobel Prize-winning author. This impressive collection includes: the full text of Fiesta, Hemingway's first major novel; long extracts from three of his greatest works of fiction, A Farewell to Arms, To Have and Have Not and For Whom the Bell Tolls; twenty-five complete short stories; and the breathtaking Epilogue to Death in the Afternoon.

'He is one of those who, honestly and undauntedly, reproduces the genuine features of the hard countenance of the age' Nobel Prize Citation

Daily Express

He can perform prodigies. He can fascinate us by pure evocation, by the tensity of the situation

Times Literary Supplement

Hemingway's style, at its best, is a superb vehicle for revealing tenderness of feeling beneath descriptions of brutality
