Well, I'm sure glad I unknowingly picked out that first taxi scene with Brett and Jake. Hemingway has brought us back to where we began...with Brett and Jake in a taxi. There's some top-notch writing for yous. So, may I ask, what has changed from that point to the end of the book? Jake and Brett's relationship is the same. Brett isn't engaged. Jake passionately dislikes Robert Cohn. Everyone is still drunk. Mazeltov.
The Sun Also Rises in a nutshell, or rather on the rocks.
Go Prohibition!
