- Annotation
- Takes issue with Scott Donaldson s argument that the code is a morality made up of equal exchanges with financial exchanges mirroring moral ones. Cheatham reads Jake as a moral character not because of his financial responsibility, but because he offers a surplus of feeling toward Brett Ashley and others. See Donaldson s Hemingway s Morality of Compensation in American Literature 43, no. 3 (Nov. 1971): 399-420.
