Rezensionen

"Breaking free from the essentialized 20th century literary criticism that focussed on Ernest Hemingway as a macho male writer who actively participated in the two world wars and yet claimed 'a separate peace', Tania Chakravertty's book will compel evaluative engagement and deep reading of the often elided and ignored factors that dispense crucial evidences of gender fluidity in Hemingway's novels. Chakravertty's scholarly and critical reassessments provide an intensive analytical reading of Ernest Hemingway's novels that engage nonbinary identities and the complexities of alternative sexual orientations. Such a holistic approach opens up new windows of perception about Ernest Hemingway's timeless fictional narratives."
