In conjunction with another book I'm reading (R. Andrew Wilson's Write Like Hemingway), I just read a few of Ernest Hemingway's better-known short stories in The Complete Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway. I read "The Killers," "Hills Like White Elephants," and "The Snows of Kilimanjaro." I've read them all before, but I enjoyed them thoroughly this time around.
Ernest Hemingway once said "the writer's job is to tell the truth." I thought that was supposed to be my job, but sometimes I wonder. Maybe I need to get a sampler cross-stitched of that quote for my office wall.
