- Annotation
- Considers the spiritual dimensions of the toreo, which make it not only the center of the novel but also the center of the author s artistic vision. Sees characters revolving around the center in concentric circles at varying distances from Romero who is nearest the center to the uncomprehending Cohn, the farthest figure. Traces Hemingway s transformation of the historical Cayetano Ord ez into the mythic Romero. Previously published in Hemingway Review 6, no. 1 (Fall 1986): 88-99, and elsewhere.
