- Annotation
- Outlines his method for preparing students for the subtle expression of gender and psychosexual themes found in A Farewell to Arms by first reading their more pronounced presence in the posthumously published The Garden of Eden. Concludes that this backwards approach fosters a closer reading and a richer understanding of A Farewell to Arms, including the haircutting fetish as a tool for merging and Catherine Barkley as the split-off other-sex half of Hemingway s ego.
