Literary masters : Ernest Hemingway

Literary Masters is one series of the trio that makes up the Gale Study Guides to Great Literature (the others are Literary Masterpieces and Literary Topics). Each Literary Masters volume introduces a significant author and covers basic biographical information. Ernest Hemingway is linked with the expatriate movement and his novels and short stories deal with the mindset that came with being part of the "lost generation", that group of American writers who had been affected by World War I and its aftermath. He also traveled widely, identifying especially with Spain and Cuba and using these and other countries and cultures for inspiration.
