Description

Originally published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises is Ernest Hemingway’s first novel and a classic example of his spare but powerful writing style.​

A poignant look at the disillusionment and angst of the post-World War I generation, the novel introduces two of Hemingway’s most unforgettable characters: Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley. The story follows the flamboyant Brett and the hapless Jake as they journey from the wild nightlife of 1920s Paris to the brutal bullfighting rings of Spain with a motley group of expatriates. In his first great literary masterpiece, Hemingway portrays an age of moral bankruptcy, spiritual dissolution, unrealized love, and vanishing illusions.

Ce que les critiques en disent

2007 Audie Award Finalist for Classics

"An absorbing, beautifully and tenderly absurd, heart-breaking narrative....It is a truly gripping story, told in lean, hard athletic prose...magnificent." (The New York Times)

“The ideal companion for troubled times: equal parts Continental escape and serious grappling with the question of what it means to be, and feel, lost.” (The Wall Street Journal)

By far the best book I've listened to

Hemingway's story is superb and William Hurt really brings it to life. I don't understand why so many listeners here were disappointed by the reader, I almost gave up listening to this book. I'm glad I didn't. Hurt did a great job adapting Hemingway's style to audio.

positives: fairly short book

I just do not enjoy Hemingway's style. I understand that this book is about a lost generation who is dealing with the emotions during the aftermath of the first world war. I just do not care about the characters, the setting, or their stories.

The positives are that this is a fairly short book and that the performance is exceptional.

In my Top 3 Hemingway

I can't decide between the 3 but this is a contender for favourite. An amazing flow to the story and makes something so casual in some ways so amazing through his writing and detail.

Not relevant anymore.

While appreciated by the lost generation, I don't know if it's an engaging read for this generation. It's hard to relate to the characters. They're all rich artists living it up in Paris/Spain without any really compelling goals or motivations. Bill and Mike didn't really seem to fit into the group well. The characters were interesting, though, well representing the time.
While I get there's supposed to be a lot of subtle meaning in the book, I didn't find it was brought out very well. From what I gathered, this is mostly a recounting of a trip Hemingway took. While this gives the novel a feeling of life and realism, it does drag in places.
The language is superb, delivering clear and oftentimes poetic prose that gives no more details than necessary, it gets dull after a while, giving the book a flat tone. Dialogue is handled great, however, a bit repetitive.

Vivid

This story transported me back to this specific period in time, and from place to place. I really enjoyed the description of each unique place and felt like I was there along side the characters as they travelled about in this book, the fishing trip was especially enjoyable and inspiring to me.
Books like this are special due to their qualities as time capsules taking the reader to a place that exists only in memories.

Out of date

This book is full of tired dandies and chats about nothing important. In a hundred years, people won’t be reading this other than for pure historical value. Boring.

Boring and pointless

Descriptive writing to a fault. I guess I am not a Hemi great fan so it will save me the trouble of reading any more of his novels.

boring!

I thought I love Hemingway. Read The Man and the Sea, as well as For Whom the Bell Tolls. I was so deeply touched by both those books. This one, however, goes on and on about the same daily routines... It's a shame to return a book of a well-known good author, but I can't keep listening. It's quite depressing too.

A book about going to cafes

I’ve always heard about Ernst Hemingway and thought I should give one of his books a try. I read on google the sun also rises was well received by readers so that’s the one I chose.
Most of the book goes, we went into a cafe and ordered a drink.
We then hailed a cab went down the road and went to another cafe.
In the morning we got up and had breakfast at a cafe.
Maybe before the internet people eating in cafes in Paris and Spain was more interesting. Having said that there is something about how he writes his characters because I stuck to it and wanted to see the book to the end no matter how boring I thought the plot was. We all know a Brett lol.

Boring as sawdust

I don't often quit a book but I had to make an exception in this case. Was the memory of this work why Hemingway shot himself?
