The Snows of Kilimanjaro/the Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber [Unabridged]

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO the protagonist perishes of gangrene alone out in the bush, recognizing his failure as a writer: a writer who never had the nerve to write. He dies with stoic acceptance and a view of the famous summit unseen by any alive.

In THE SHORT HAPPY LIFE OF FRANCIS MACOMBER, Francis is too wimpy to face down a wounded lion, let alone satisfy his wife in bed. As always, Hemingway's characters speak of his own self-perceived failures and fears. As often, Hemingway speaks for us all.
