First published in 1926, Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises is a defining novel of the Lost Generation. Set in the aftermath of World War I, it follows American expatriate Jake Barnes and a group of friends as they travel from Paris cafes to the bullfighting rings of Pamplona. Amidst the glitter of nightlife and the thrill of the fiesta, Hemingway portrays a generation adrift-haunted by war, struggling with disillusionment, and searching for meaning in love and pleasure.
With its spare prose and understated power, The Sun Also Rises remains one of Hemingway's greatest achievements: a novel at once elegant, tragic, and enduringly modern.
