re: Hemingway doc spinoff - What's your favorite EMH writing?

A Farewell to Arms

Like a lot of Hemingway, its a lot of "this is what people are going on about???" and then all of a sudden a page of "holy shite...thats about as good of a paragraph as ive ever read."

Theres this one part where he talks about being alone and how you can be alone and be jealous of someone wanting to be alone. And how you can feel alone with someone without being lonely. It also talks about how "things of the night" dont exist during the day. And how life breaks you are kills you. All in one succinct (ha, succinct, redundant when talking about Hemingway) paragraph. That whole paragraph made me put the book down and just sit with it for awhile.


Also, the part where the two officials are arguing about which Swiss cities have winter sport is hilarious.
