Description taken from Amazon:
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.
"Some of the best short stories written in this century." (New York Herald-Tribune)
