The Sun Also Rises

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Sun Also Rises is the first major novel by Ernest Hemingway (July 21, 1899 July 2, 1961). Published in 1926, the plot centers on a group of expatriate American citizens and British subjects in continental Europe during the 1920s. The book's title, selected by Hemingway (at the recommendation of his publisher) is taken from Ecclesiastes 1:5: The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. Hemingway's original title for the work was Fiesta, which was used in the British, German, Russian, Italian and Spanish editions of the novel. The novel made Hemingway famous, inspired young ladies across America to wear short hair and sweater sets like Brett Ashley's-and to act like her too-and changed writing style in ways that could be seen by picking up any American magazine published within the next twenty years. Time magazine included the novel in its TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005.
