a guide to modernism and postmodernism


Understanding Ernest Hemingway's In Our Time


While seemingly simple on the surface, Ernest Hemingway's 1925 book, In Our Time, is actually a complex, fragmented cubist-influenced work of fiction.

 

Start by learning about Ernest Hemingway, the impact of World War I on his life and writing, his role in the Lost Generation, and his unique book In Our Time.

 

Then look at Hemingway's modernism as seen through photographs.
