The Sun Also Rises

Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of the Festival of San Fermín in Pamplona, the narrative follows a group of American and British expatriates as they journey from Paris to experience the excitement of bullfighting and the running of the bulls. The novel explores themes of disillusionment and the search for meaning in a post-World War I world, capturing the complexities of relationships and the struggles of a lost generation. Hemingway's distinctive prose style vividly brings to life the vibrant atmosphere of the festival and the characters' emotional landscapes.
