Men Without Women

By
Ernest Hemingway
Cornerstone
Men Without Women was a milestone in Hemingway's career.
Fiesta had already established him as a novelist of exceptional
power, but with these short stories, his second collection, he showed
that it is possible, within the space of a few pages, to recreate a
scene with absolute truth, bringing to life details observed only by
the eye of a uniquely gifted artist.

Hemingway's men are bullfighters and boxers, hired hands and hard
drinkers, gangsters and gunmen. Each of their stories deals with
masculine toughness unsoftened by woman's hand. Incisive, hard-
edged, pared down to the bare minimum, they are classic
Hemingway territory - they helped establish him as one of the great
literary authors of the twentieth century, and one of the best
American authors of all time.
