Title: Hemingway s Midwest: The Interior Landscape
Author/Creator: James Seaton
Publication Details: Midwestern Miscellany, Vol.31, pp.14-21
Annotation: Argues that Hemingway s depiction of the Midwest lacks religious tradition and values, resulting in confusion and destruction. Seaton writes: Itself untouched by war, the disorder of Hemingway s Midwest provides an ominous analogue to the chaos of real war. Argues that the violent and overwhelming forces of war are simply a stronger version of those found in ordinary midwestern life. Frequent references to In Our Time, Fathers and Sons, and God Rest You Merry, Gentlemen.
