Nick Adams Stories

Nick Adams Stories

by Ernest Hemmingway

In this chronological collection of stories about Nick Adams gleaned from Hemingway's early writing, one can see the outline of a life with close similarities to his own. Poignant and powerful, it is a good introduction to Hemingway's work and provides insights, not only into the author but into ourselves as well. A reader writes "To me, this book is so eloquent I am reluctant to review it because it will be impossible to do it justice." (Bruce L. Nelson, Amazon) Easy to read but complex subjects.
