In Our Time

In Our Time, Ernest Hemingway's first novel, published in Paris in 1924, launched his career as a major literary talent. This edition includes the eighteen short but powerful vignettes included in the original edition. In 1925, Hemingway published a much-expanded edition that included some of his most famous stories.

A Vintage Classics edition of the early collection of short fiction that first established Ernest Hemingway's reputation, including several of his most loved stories Ernest Hemingway, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954, did more to change the style of fiction in English than any other writer of his time with his economical prose and terse, declarative sentences that conceal more than they reveal. In Our Time , published in 1925, was the collection that first drew the world's attention to Hemingway. Besides revealing his versatility as a writer and throwing fascinating light on the themes of his major novels--war, love, heroism, and renunciation--this collection contains many stories that are lasting achievements in their own right, including the Nick Adams stories "Indian Camp," "The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife," "The Three-Day Blow," "The Battler," and "Big Two-Hearted River."

2021 Reprint of the 1925 Edition. The stories' themes - of alienation, loss, grief, separation - continue the work Hemingway began with the vignettes, which include descriptions of acts of war, bullfighting and current events. The collection is known for its spare language and oblique depiction of emotion, through a style known as Hemingway's "theory of omission." Critics have long recognized In Our Time as a major development in American literature and Modernism. Edmund Wilson, in one of the first reviews, gave the collection high praise and wrote that Hemingway "almost invented a form of his own". In Wilson's view, the book was a break-through with "more artistic dignity than anything else about the period of the war that has as yet been written by an American." Now recognized as one of the most original short story collections in twentieth-century literature, In Our Time provides a key to Hemingway's later works. In Our Time is Ernest Hemingway's first collection of short stories, published in 1925 by Boni & Liveright, New York. Its title is derived from the English Book of Common Prayer, "Give peace in our time, O Lord". The collection's publication history was complex. It began with six prose vignettes commissioned by Ezra Pound for a 1923 edition of The Little Review; Hemingway added twelve more and in 1924 compiled the in our time edition (with a lower-case title), which was printed in Paris. To these were added fourteen short stories for the 1925 edition, including "Indian Camp" and "Big Two-Hearted River", two of his best-known Nick Adams stories. He composed "On the Quai at Smyrna" for the 1930 edition. Our edition reprints the 1925 Edition by Boni & Liveright.

Ernest Miller Hemingway was an American novelist, short-story writer, journalist, and sportsman. His economical and understated style-which he termed the iceberg theory-had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his adventurous lifestyle and his public image brought him admiration from later generations. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. He published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two nonfiction works. Three of his novels, four short-story collections, and three nonfiction works were published posthumously. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature. In Our Time is Ernest Hemingway's first collection of short stories, published in 1925. Its title is derived from the English Book of Common Prayer, "Give peace in our time, O Lord". To this edition were added four more short stories, including "Indian Camp", "My Old Man", "Up in Michigan", and "Out of Season". Hemingway's writing style attracted attention, with literary critic Edmund Wilson saying it was "of the first distinction"; the 1925 edition of In Our Time is considered one of Hemingway's early masterpieces.

In Our Time has a curios history in that Earnest Hemingway released it in at least three different versions. The first edition (the 1924 Paris edition) was commissioned by Ezra Pound for Three Mountains Press and contains six prose vignettes. The collection explores loss, grief, separation, and alienation topics Hemingway would never leave behind. Until Ezra Pound asked him to write this collection Hemingway was primarily a writer of non-fiction. This collection would forever change that. Hemingway's spars style attracted attention immediately. The face of American Fiction would never be the same.

There once was a time when the concept of equal pay for equal work did not exist, when women of all ages were "girls," when abortion was a back-alley procedure, when there was no such thing as a rape crisis center or a shelter for battered women, when "sexual harassment" had not yet been named and defined. "If conditions are right," Susan Brownmiller says in this stunning memoir, "if the anger of enough people has reached the boiling point, the exploding passion can ignite a societal transformation." In Our Time tells the story of that transformation, as only Brownmiller can. A leading feminist activist and the author of Against Our Will , the book that changed the nation's perception of rape, she now brings the Women's Liberation movement and its passionate history vividly to life. Here is the colorful cast of characters on whose shoulders we stand--the feminist icons Betty Friedan, Kate Millett, Germaine Greer, and Gloria Steinem, and the lesser known women whose contributions to change were equally profound. And here are the landmark events of the era: the consciousness-raising groups that sprung up in people's living rooms, the mimeographed position papers that first articulated the new thinking, the abortion and rape speak-outs, the daring sit-ins, the underground newspaper collectives, and the inventive lawsuits that all played a role in the most wide-reaching revolution of the twentieth century. Here as well are Brownmiller's reflections on the feminist utopian vision, and her dramatic accounts, rendered with honesty and humor, of the movement's painful internal schisms as it struggled to give voice to the aspirarations of all women. Finally, Brownmiller addresses that most relevant question: What is the legacy of feminism today?

"In Our Time" is a seminal collection of short stories and vignettes that established Ernest Hemingway as a leading voice of the Lost Generation. This influential work showcases the author's signature "iceberg" style-a minimalist prose technique that conveys deep emotional complexity through sparse, direct language. The collection is notable for introducing Nick Adams, a semi-autobiographical protagonist who navigates the transition from childhood innocence in the American wilderness to the harsh realities of adulthood and war. The narratives within "In Our Time" traverse a wide range of settings and themes, from the brutal bullrings of Spain to the quiet fishing streams of Michigan. Interspersed between the longer stories are brief, visceral sketches of violence and conflict, highlighting the fragmented nature of human experience in the early twentieth century. Themes of masculinity, trauma, nature, and disillusionment permeate the text, reflecting the cultural landscape following World War I. As a foundational text of modernist literature, "In Our Time" remains a powerful exploration of the human condition. It offers readers a profound look at the psychological scars of war and the search for meaning in a rapidly changing world. This collection continues to be celebrated for its stylistic innovation and its enduring impact on the craft of short fiction.
