The Sun Also Rises is my favourite kHz1000 Send a noteboard - 14/04/2014 08:13:43 PM

I've read that twice. Don't really remember much about FWtBT and I've only read the Garden of Eden besides those. I read them all in translation, anyways. Though I do think Hemingway's sparse style might translate very well in to Finnish. Things in Finnish tend to sound more low-key than in English. Advertisements, for example. I think it has something to do with the use of adjectives.
Still, a great writer. And I was a WoT fan so Robert Jordan was a nice curiosity.

Rigney claimed the pen name was pure coincidence. I don't believe him. Tom - 14/04/2014 08:18:05 PM 539 Views
I read it about 10-15 years ago and thought it was "meh"...... Anonymous2000 - 18/04/2014 02:33:49 PM 507 Views
I might read The Old Man and the Sea. It's the only other one I'd consider. Tom - 18/04/2014 07:29:37 PM 540 Views
