- Title
- The Hemingway Short Story: A Study in Craft for Writers and Readers
- Author/Creator
- Robert Paul Lamb
- Annotation
- Close reading of five representative short stories such as Indian Camp, Soldier s Home, and A Canary for One that analyzes Hemingway s artistic technique and methods of construction. His study of Big Two-Hearted River, for example, focuses on the nature of reading and writing, interpreting the story as a metafiction concerning the writing of stories. And his examination of God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen analyzes the story in relation to semiotic confusion and the consequences of misreading. Lamb s examination of Hemingway s conscious, creative craft complements his cultural studies approach and situates the short story within its own distinct genre.
