Synopsis "The Torrents of Spring: A Romantic Novel in Honor of the Passing of a Great Race (in English)"

Subtitled 'A Romantic Novel in Honour of the Passing of a Great Race', The Torrents of Spring - Hemingway's second published work - wonderfully parodies the themes and styles of the 'great race' of writers of his generation. Spring is coming to the small towns of Michigan, but the snow still covers the land when Scripps O'Neil sets of for Chicago, decides to stop a while in Petoskey, and meets up with Yogi Johnson. Their bizarre stories are a brilliant satire on conventional fiction. The characters they meet are absurd and yet strangely familiar. Short, fast-paced, funny, The Torrents of Spring throws light on Hemingway's later work - and is a delight to read. Here we can see the developing talent of one of the great novelists of the twentieth century.

Ernest Miller Hemingway (Oak Park, 21 de julio de 1899-Ketchum, 2 de julio de 1961) fue un escritor y periodista estadounidense, uno de los principales novelistas y cuentistas del siglo XX.

Su estilo sobrio—que él denominó la teoría del iceberg—tuvo una gran influencia sobre la ficción del siglo XX, mientras que su vida de aventuras y su imagen pública le trajeron la admiración de las generaciones posteriores. Hemingway escribió la mayor parte de su obra entre mediados de la década de 1920 y mediados de la década de 1950. Ganó el Premio Pulitzer en 1953 por El viejo y el mar y al año siguiente el Premio Nobel de Literatura por su obra completa. Publicó siete novelas, seis recopilaciones de cuentos, dos ensayos y una obra de teatro.

Póstumamente se publicaron tres novelas, cuatro libros de cuentos y tres ensayos. Muchos de estos son considerados clásicos de la literatura de Estados Unidos.
