Read it: in our time

in our time

by Ernest Hemingway

 

 

   This was Ernest Hemingway's first collection of short stories. I found my father's copy that he had bought in the 80s... talk about a relic! I enjoy Hemingway's style of writing. I never had to read any of his work in high school or college. I took all of these short stories, at first, for what they were worth. It wasn't until later that I realized that many of the short stories were based on Hemingway's own life in World War I. After I saw that Hemingway had woven himself somehow into each story as a form of some sort of therapy, I adored the book even more and have even more respect for Hemingway as a writer.
