The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway chronicles the temperaments and lifestyles of young, hard-drinking English and American expatriates on an expedition to Spain. Jake, with his friends, travels from the 1920s nightlife of Paris to Spain to witness the festival of San Fermina in Pamplona. Jake Barnes and Lady Brett Ashley, two of Hemingway’s most iconic characters, are introduced in this novel. Jake goes haywire in Lady Brett’s love, but fate has different plans for their communion. The group explores a frivolous lifestyle in Paris and Spain, in tune with the avant-garde spirit of the Lost Generation of early twentieth-century America, twinged with the existential disillusionment of a post war world. As the story wanderingly unfolds, both demographically and sensually, the characters discover truths about themselves, physical intimacy and relationships. The novel is known by the alternative title Fiesta in England.

Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) was an American novelist, short-story writer and journalist who won the Nobel Prize in Literature (1954) and the Pulitzer Prize in fiction (1953) for his masterpiece Old Man and the Sea. His father was a doctor, and he was the second of six children. Their home vas at Oak Park, a Chicago suburb. Hemingway proposed the 'iceberg' theory which represents how readers only perceive characters like the tip of the iceberg, whereas the bulk of ice underneath are symbols found only in the writer's knowledge. He mastered the art of Modern Narration in the post-war period. Hemingway's first two published works were Three Stories and Ten Poems and In Our Time, but it was the satirical novel The Torrents of Spring that established his name more widely. His international reputation was firmly secured by his next three books: Fiesta, Men Without Women and A Farewell to Arms. Old Man and the Sea (1952) was Hemingway's last work.
