Blog #5


       For my literary analyses paper I am going to use Ernest Hemingway’s story “The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber”. In this story Hemingway’s “hero code” is very clear. I feel that there I plenty of information and examples to show that way he writes about his characters. He made them both very different. The way he made Robert Wilson in the story a very bold man with no weaknesses that was afraid of nothing, and then made the Francis Macomber less manly more fearful. Francis also had a wife that did not bow down to him, she was strong wiled. I feel that I will be able to find plenty of sources on this topic too. Also, a reason I choose this story is for me this is the only story I completely understood. Some of the other stories dialect was too much for me to fully fallow. I wouldn’t understand and would have to reread several times. This short story by Hemingway was differently one of my favorites and caught my interest. I don't read much and it is hard for me to find things that I am interested so this story had a lot of pluses to it!
