“I’m afraid to say it was incredibly dull…a random collection of stories with unsatisfying starts, meandering middle sections and sleep inducing ends. It really felt like a collection of ideas for books cobbled together and then released. A classic it is not. Terrible 😞”Diverse charactersRacism

“Perhaps I am not the target audience for this specific Hemingway book.
I picked this book because maybe I thought it would be a number of short dystopian stories about lives lived from the perspective of men, quite literally WITHOUT women in the world.
It was definitely not this. They say 'Don't judge a book by its cover' but they never say 'Don't judge a book by its title' and I certainly made that mistake.
Hemingway's writing made me feel like I had lost the ability to read. I was confused constantly. Each short story felt like it had no plot, no thickness , no real explanation or ending.
I feel like I've missed the whole point.”
