Overview
Set against the lush backdrop of the French Riviera, this complex novel follows David Bourne, an emerging writer, and his wife Catherine during their honeymoon. As their love story unfolds, Catherine challenges traditional gender roles, cutting her hair short and blurring lines of identity and desire. Their relationship deepens into unconventional territory, including a ménage à trois with a young woman named Marita, sparking jealousy and emotional turmoil. The novel explores themes of gender fluidity, creativity, and self-discovery, while juxtaposing the couple's personal struggles against broader questions of artistic inspiration and freedom, Evoking passion, confusion, and psychological depth, it captures Hemingway's late-career interest in the complexities of relationships, identity, and the human psyche.
