- Annotation
- Equates modern bullfighting s lack of mentor-apprentice relationships with the lack of effective communication between young and old, resulting in a generational rift. Views the story as Hemingway s incisive criticism of a society content to marginalize tradition, comparing him to fellow modernists Eliot and Pound. Frequent references to Death in the Afternoon.
