In the aftermath of war, they searched for meaning—in love, in travel, and in themselves. Published in 1926, The Sun Also Rises is Ernest Hemingway's groundbreaking debut novel and a defining work of the Lost Generation. Set in Paris and Spain during the 1920s, it follows Jake Barnes, an American expatriate, and his circle of friends as they navigate love, jealousy, and disillusionment in the shadow of World War I. From Parisian cafés to the thrill of Pamplona's bullfights, Hemingway's lean, understated prose captures both the glamour and the aimlessness of an era. Beneath the surface lies a poignant meditation on masculinity, identity, and the struggle to find purpose in a fractured world. "Hemingway's best novel, filled with poignant beauty and understated power." – The New York Times "A landmark of modernist literature—spare, profound, and unforgettable." – The Guardian ✅ Why Readers Love It:
