Author/Creator: Richard Fantina
Publication Details: Hemingway Review, Vol.23(1), pp.84-105
Annotation: Draws on Leopold von Sacher-Masoch s Venus in Furs (1870) and gender theory to position Hemingway s work within the recent discourse of male heterosexual masochism. Engages in a detailed analysis of The Sun Also Rises, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Across the River and into the Trees, Islands in the Stream, and The Garden of Eden, focusing on sodomy, masochism, homophobia, and the central role of the dominant woman in masochism.
