The Sun Also Rises

Set against the backdrop of the 1926 San Fermín festival in Pamplona, the narrative follows a group of American and British expatriates as they navigate their post-World War I disillusionment. Through their journey from Paris to Spain, themes of love, loss, and the search for meaning emerge, highlighted by the excitement of the bullfights and the running of the bulls. Hemingway's distinctive prose captures the complexities of their relationships and the vibrant atmosphere of the festival.
