Hemingway vs. Camus, indeed
Jun. 16th, 2002 04:13 pmStudying for my English diploma, the writing part.
I've just read Ernest Hemingway's "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and been researching it so I can understand all the themes, symbolism, etc. if I want to use it for tomorrow's exam.
It's a slog. I have to take numerous breaks. I mean, when you get into "Hemingway vs. Camus vs. Fitzgerald in existentialism vs absurdism"...well, I dunno about you people, but it's making my eyes cross.
Ah, the joys of high-school English.
