Title: The Light from Hemingway s Garden: Regendering Papa
Author/Creator: Nancy R. Comley
Publication Details: Hemingway and Women: Female Critics and the Female Voice, pp.204-220
Annotation: Examines gender in several Hemingway texts considering his exploration of sexual identity in the unpublished manuscript of The Garden of Eden. Comley discusses the critical tendency to read Indian Camp as an example of the male embodiment of the heroic code, ignoring the Indian woman s part. Concludes by paralleling Catherine Bourne with Brett Ashley of The Sun Also Rises, maintaining that they are Hemingway s most interesting women because they challenge societal definitions of femininity and masculinity.
