A Rotten Way to Be Wounded: The Tragicomedy of 'The Sun Also Rises' is the kind of close textual study of The Sun Also Rises that Hemingway scholars have recently been calling for. Careful textual analysis and an exploration of Hemingway's use of literary allusion as a narrative technique combine to offer many unorthodox and thought-provoking interpretations of character portrayal, narrative movement, and plot. While the ideas presented may be bold and innovative, this is a well-documented, scholarly work which will provide many points of departure for others trying to read between the lines of Hemingway's deceptively simple prose.
