Ernest Hemingway · 1926 · Literary fiction
A group of expatriate Americans and a British socialite chase bullfights and drink their way through Paris and Pamplona in the aftermath of the First World War. Jake Barnes loves Brett Ashley; Brett loves Jake; neither can have the other in the way they want. Hemingway's first novel, and still his best diagnosis of what war does to desire.
