A review by myaharmon
The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway
3.0
It was really fun at first! At first. Jake’s introspection felt especially prominent in the beginning; combined with the introduction of multiple characters and all-too-familiar dynamics, it was easy to get attached to the novel.
I was put off by certain antisemetic remarks in the beginning, and they only became more prominent. I wasn’t necessarily put off by the minor remarks at first, but once I was far enough through the book, the anti-semitism was apparent and aggressive.
I lost interest as the focus of the book shifted towards the nuances of their travel. I just don’t really give a shit about Paris
