- Annotation
- Considers the influence of Hemingway s short story on the Dominican American author s 2007 transnational novel, exploring D az s responses to and revisions of his predecessor s story line, style, and treatment of ethnicity, identity, masculinity, and colonialism. Hellman concludes that D az s engagement in intertextual dialogue with the literary giant marks his resistance to the colonizing force of the white American canon.
