You ever feel like there's something going over your head, or you're just not seeing the full picture? That's how I felt during the majority of this book. I'm not sure if it's because I don't know much about the setting as far the history is concerned, or if it's because this was my first Hemingway novel and maybe I should have started with something else.
I started this book because I really loved "In Another Country" and I really like the whole modernist era, but I feel like I just wasn't seeing what I was supposed to be seeing. However the ending of this book did feel very modernist and reminded me why I was interested in the first place. So, I don't quite know how to feel about this because I liked the ending, but felt lost during a good portion of it.
