Hemingway Word for Word

Episode 2: "The End of Something"


Listen Later

For this episode, I take a close look at "The End of Something" from Hemingway's first major work of fiction, In Our Time.  This story bears a range of striking similarities to "Hills Like White Elephants," so listening to Episode 1 will help, though isn't necessary.   I see this story as a cautionary tale about the dangers of looking for short-term, "fun" responses to our relationships rather than embracing the more complex and more rewarding deep relationships with each other and with the world.
