The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories is an outstanding introduction to Ernest Hemingway's genius. It comprises 10 of Hemingway's most recognized and beloved works of short fiction. This collection includes "The Killers, " the first of Hemingway's mature stories to be accepted by an American periodical, the autobiographical "Fathers and Sons, " which alludes, for the first time in Hemingway's career, to his father's suicide, and "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber, " which Hemingway described as a "brilliant fusion of personal observation, hearsay, and invention." Hemingway boasted that he "put all the true stuff in, " with enough material to cover four volumes. The stories in this collection are beautiful in their simplicity, shocking in their inventiveness, and unrivalled in their artistry, and they showcase one of America's finest storytellers at the top of his game.
