- Annotation
- Close reading of shifts in Hemingway s omniscient narrative style over time, contending that changes from a distant narrator to a more emphatic and revealing one reflects Hemingway s changing religious beliefs and increased need for consolation. Includes an examination of In Our Time, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Across the River and into the Trees, The Old Man and the Sea, A Clean Well-Lighted Place, and The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber.
