Antonio Ordóñez og Luis Miguel Dominguín er to af de helt store spanske tyrefægtere i 1950‘erne. I "Farlig sommer" kortlægges rivaliseringen mellem dem i sommeren 1959. Det er fortællingen om opkomlingen Ordóñez, der er såret efter at være blevet stanget, men som bliver ved med at kæmpe, og om den erfarne Dominguín, hvis stolthed og selvtillid drager ham ind i kampen mod den unge Ordóñez.Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961) var meget optaget af tyrefægtning og har i tidlige værker som "Solen går sin gang" (1926) skrevet fiktion over den dramatiske sportsgren. I "Farlig sommer" er fiktion skiftet ud med reportage.Ernest Hemingway (1899-1961) en af det 20. århundredes vigtigste og mest indflydelsesrige USA-forfattere. Har ry som stoisk, macho og eventyrer. Fortællestilen er sproglig skrabet med få adjektiver - antydningens teknik - som tjente til inspiration for andre forfatetre. Han led af depressioner og begik selvmord i 1961. Nobelpris 1954.
Døden kommer om eftermiddagen rummer kvintessensen af Hemingway og er skrevet først i 1930‘erne på hans livs og forfatterskabs højde. Bogen drejer sig om tyrefægtning, tapperhed og fejhed, om mod, teknik og historie. Men hovedtemaet forgrener sig til mange sidespor og lag, som alle tjener til at kaste nyt lys over mennekset og forfatteren Ernest Hemingway.Ernest Hemingway, 1899-1961, en af det 20. århundredes vigtigste og mest indflydelsesrige USA-forfattere.

"Farvel til våbnene" er delvis skrevet over Hemingways egne oplevelser som ambulancefører på den italienske front. Den amerikanske løjtnant Frederic Henry møder den engelske sygeplejerske, Cathrine Barkley, og da Henry bliver såret kommer de ved et tilfælde til at være på det samme hospital i Milano. Her oplever de en fantastisk tid sammen, hvor de kan nyde livet og hinanden (i hemmelighed). Det bliver den diametrale modsætning af forholdene i krigen. Henry skal dog tilbage til fronten, men da de må trække sig tilbage opstår der nærmest anarki i den italienske hær og officererne er i fare for at blive henrettet. Det er takken for at have tjent et andet land, og Henry må flygte med miss Barkley til Schweiz. Der er helt klart et ønske om at sige farvel til krig, våben, død og ødelæggelse. I bogen er der en gennemgående afmagt overfor hvorfor man kæmper. Man ved ikke hvor længe det skal vare og hele situationen er ekstremt utilfredsstillende for de involverede.Det er en mesterligt skrevet roman om krigens forfærdelige verden, hvor man ikke ved hvem der er ven eller fjende. Men samtidig er det en livsglad fortælling om hvordan man alligevel klarer sig."Vor tids fineste kærlighedsroman" - Tom Kristensen "Farvel til våbnene er stadig den bedste, den allerbedste krigsbog i sin art og sin genre: Kærlighedshistorie og roman. Den har blandt andet den fordel, at man tror på den kærlighed, han fortæller om, og derfor tager Hemingways roman os om hjertet."- Berlingske AftenavisErnest Hemingway (1899 – 1961) f. i Oak Park i Chicago, Illinois. Hemingway var, og er, en af Amerikas betydeligste forfattere, der som journalist havde lært sig en enkelt stil, der blev karakteristisk for hans skønlitterære værker. I 1954 modtog Hemingway nobelprisen i litteratur.
Edens have er en sanselig kærlighedshistorie om den unge amerikanske forfatter David Bourne og hans kone Catherine, der er på bryllupsrejse i 1920'ernes solbeskinnede og uspolerede Sydfrankrig. Han står på tærsklen til sit litterære gennembrud og er ivrig efter at begynde at skrive igen. Catherine opmuntrer og støtter ham, men gør samtidig alt for at forhindre hans kreativitet. I sin jalousi frister hun ham med en endnu yngre og smukkere kvinde, og en farlig erotisk leg for tre tager fart."Det er ikke alene Hemingway. Det er en af han smukkeste og mest bevægende fortællinger, så hemingwaysk i hver detalje, at det gør ondt under læsningen." Politiken"En betagende smuk kærlighedsroman" BT"Edens have er vintage Hemingway, mesteren, der skrev bedre end nogen anden"
En berømt maler, den amerikanske Thomas Hudson, har slået sig ned på en ø for i ro og fred at hellige sig sin kunst, men de ydre omstændigheder og hans egen undergangsdrift fører ham mod katastrofen.I "Øen og havet", der er posthumt udgivet, møder vi en klassisk Hemingway-figur: den mandlige kunstner, stoisk og distanceret, der bliver mere og mere introvert i takt med, at hans drikkeri tager til. I bogen hører vi om hans aktiviteter under 2. Verdenskrig og hans oplevelser som maler.Ernest Hemingway, 1899-1961, en af det 20. århundredes vigtigste og mest indflydelsesrige USA-forfattere.

Solen går sin gang, som var Hemingways første roman, beskriver en gruppe unge rodløse og desillusionerede amerikanske kunstneres hektiske, udsvævende liv i efterkrigstidens Paris og Spanien i 1920'erne. Krigen har berøvet dem troen på en højere mening. Kun en intens leven i nuet kan for en stund fortrænge meningsløsheden og den manglende tro på fremtiden."Solen går sin gang demonstrerer allerede en hel række af Hemingways kunstneriske virkemidler. Den knappe stil, den sigende tavshed, ærligheden, den omskabte følsomhed, den intense deskriptive evne. Der er scener i bogen fra Spanien og fra tyrefægtningerne, som er helt blændende prosa, sider af en egen hård, blank glansfuldhed, der næsten indkapsler dem i en slags mytisk poesi – så fortættet er stemningen bag de sikre konstateringer." – Hakon Stangerup, Nationaltidende"En af Hemingways mest bevægende romaner." – Bo Green Jensen, Weekendavisen
Hvem ringer klokkerne for hører til Hemingways mest berømte og læste romaner. Den foregår over 3-4 døgn under Den Spanske Borgerkrig, hvor en amerikansk spængningsekspert i samarbejde med en lokal partisangruppe har til opgave at sprænge en bro i luften. Sideløbende med den realistiske og nøgterne skildring af krigens gru og meningsløshed er indflettet en intens, følelsesfuld kærlighedshistorie. Romanen udtrykker det gennemgående tema i Hemingways forfatterskab: Der eksisterer ingen højere mening, man kan kun forsøge at udnytte sine evner bedst muligt og leve intenst i nuet, og den største, den sandeste og mest værdifulde oplevelse er kærligheden."Læseren føler sig som altid, når Hemingway er på højden, rent fysisk nærværende, lugter lugtene, mærker trykket over sindene, spændingen og fortættetheden ... Hemingways saglige, direkte, præcise stil ætser igen billederne på en gang dybt og klart ind i bevidstheden. Denne stil anskueliggør som en ingeniørtegning og beånder som en digters tale." – Hakon Stangerup, Nationaltidende"Hvor erotikken er i forgrunden røber forfatteren, at her er vi ved den eneste tro, han har. Livets sandheder kan ikke udgrundes. Forstanden vildleder os kun. Men følelsen, denne ene følelse, disse få øjeblikke giver os al den opklaring, vi kan få over en verden af meningsløshed og død ..." – Jacob Paludan, Aarhus Stiftstidende

"Por quién doblan las campanas es la novela que le dio a Hemingway lo mejor y lo peor que puede recibir alguien con mentalidad de atleta: un triunfo insuperable." Juan Villoro ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Nobel Prize Winner 1954 In 1937 Ernest Hemingway traveled to Spain to cover the civil war there for the North American Newspaper Alliance. Three years later he completed the greatest novel to emerge from "the good fight," For Whom the Bell Tolls. The story of Robert Jordan, a young American in the International Brigades attached to an antifascist guerilla unit in the mountains of Spain, it tells of loyalty and courage, love and defeat, and the tragic death of an ideal. In his portrayal of Jordan's love for the beautiful Maria and his superb account of El Sordo's last stand, in his brilliant travesty of La Pasionaria and his unwillingness to believe in blind faith, Hemingway surpasses his achievement in The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms to create a work at once rare and beautiful, strong and brutal, compassionate, moving, and wise. "If the function of a writer is to reveal reality," Maxwell Perkins wrote Hemingway after reading the manuscript, "no one ever so completely performed it." Greater in power, broader in scope, and more intensely emotional than any of the author's previous works, it stands as one of the best war novels of all time.
In Ernest Hemingway's masterful novella, The Old Man and the Sea, join Santiago, an aging Cuban fisherman, on his epic struggle against nature's furyand his own inner demons. A timeless tale of resilience, determination, and the enduring bond between man and the sea.
