In Our Time, Ernest Hemingways first collection of short stories, heralded the arrival of an original and distinct literary voice. The stories richly complicated themes of alienation, loss, grief, and separation contrast with Hemingways spare but deeply evocative prose.This Warbler Classics edition includes the essay Hemingway at Midnight by eminent literary critic Malcolm Cowley, who was a contemporary of Hemingway, as well as a detailed biographical timeline.
