Title: More Time: Reading Hemingway s Across the River and Into the Trees
Author/Creator: David Wyatt
Publication Details: Hemingway Review, Vol.35(2), pp.39-54
Annotation: Examines Hemingway s manipulation of narrative time in the novel, shifting from the duck shoot to the lengthy Venetian portion, so that his protagonist might extend his joy in experiencing life. Wyatt provides a close reading of the novel s opening, as well as commentary on Hemingway s revisions of the gondola scene and closing duck shoot chapters. Makes frequent comparisons to In Our Time and other earlier works, showing Hemingway s deliberate movement away from the craft of omission to include expressed emotion, detailed scenes, and prolonged inner monologues.
