description: From the dust jacket Beginning in 1965, Professor Bertram D. Sarason set about the formidable task of separating fact from the abundant fiction surrounding The Sun Also Rises. The ensuing five years were spent tracking down and interviewing the still-living prototypes, traveling through Europe and America seeking their relatives and friends from the Paris period, and delving into long forgotten records. With scrupulous objectivity Professor Sarason has recorded the fruits of his own research and gathered articles from The Sun set and those who knew them. This, the resulting volume, brings the persons and events portrayed in the novel into a far clearer focus than has ever before been possible. Perhaps most important, it provides considerable insight into Hemingway's techniques as a writer--and his strengths and foibles as a human being.
