Key West Hemingway

"Most scholars contend that this stage [works written at Key West from 1928-1940] in Hemingway's writing marks his 'experimental' phase and are dismissive of these works. In Key West Hemingway, the argument is finally made for the importance of this body of literature. Comprising essays focusing on often-overlooked short stories and essays, this collection argues that the island helped bring about some of Hemingway's most overtly political and ethically complex work."--Inside jacket.
