Produktbeschreibung
The Sun Also Rises is a 1926 novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway, his first, that portrays American and British expatriates who travel from Paris to the Festival of San Fermín in Pamplona to watch the running of the bulls and the bullfights. An early and enduring modernist novel, it received mixed reviews upon publication. However, Hemingway biographer Jeffrey Meyers writes that it is now "recognized as Hemingway's greatest work", and Hemingway scholar Linda Wagner-Martin calls it his most important novel. The novel was published in the United States in October 1926 by Scribner's. A year later, Jonathan Cape published the novel in London under the title Fiesta. It remains in print. The novel is a roman à clef: the characters are based on real people in Hemingway's circle, and the action is based on real events, particularly Hemingway's life in Paris in the 1920s and a trip to Spain in 1925 for the Pamplona festival and fishing in the Pyrenees. Hemingway presents his notion that the "Lost Generation"-considered to have been decadent, dissolute, and irretrievably damaged by World War I-was in fact resilient and strong. Hemingway investigates the themes of love and death, the revivifying power of nature, and the concept of masculinity. His spare writing style, combined with his restrained use of description to convey characterizations and action, demonstrates his "Iceberg Theory" of writing. (wikipedia.org)

Autorenporträt
Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) was an American novelist, short story writer, and journalist, renowned for his concise prose and strong influence on 20th-century literature. Born in Oak Park, Illinois, Hemingway served as an ambulance driver in World War I, an experience that profoundly shaped his writing. He gained fame with works like The Sun Also Rises (1926) and A Farewell to Arms (1929), both of which exemplify his minimalist style and themes of stoicism and disillusionment. Hemingway's adventurous life took him from Paris to Key West, Cuba, and Africa, influencing his later works like For Whom the Bell Tolls (1940) and The Old Man and the Sea (1952), the latter of which earned him a Pulitzer Prize. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. Hemingway's larger-than-life persona, marked by his love of travel, big-game hunting, and deep-sea fishing, along with his battles with mental illness, culminated in his suicide in 1961.
