- Annotation
- Book chapter focuses on the meaning of Hemingway s travels, touching on such ideas as privileged mobility, love of place, post-humanism, colonialism, trauma, and other theoretical mile markers. Discourses with Toni Morrison s critique of Hemingway s African writings and springboards into discussions of primitivism, the roles of and regards for nonhuman animals, critical readings of The Garden of Eden, and ultimately a deep reading of the novel, its language, symbols, and eco-conscious implications.
