- Annotation
- Focusing on the guidance offered in the second epigraph of The Sun Also Rises with its emphasis on patterns and renewal, Daiker argues against reading the novel as a treatise on the aimless wandering and moral bankruptcy of the Lost Generation. Rather, Daiker defines Jake s moral code exemplified through his thoughts and behaviors. For Jake, good comes at a price, revealing his understanding that one is responsible for one s own happiness, and thus capable of overcoming moral lapses and defeat.
