Hemingway

Out of the two Hemingway stories that we have read, they both have one thing in common. Darkness, anger, frustration and suicide (or steps to suicide). When we look at what Hemingway did in his life, the last thing he did was kill himself. An author writing stories with the characters struggling with depression and anxiety, and ending up killing himself makes it seem like he was trying to be honest through his characters. His stories were like a call for help, that no one seemed to understand, no one seemed to pick up on, no one seemed to answer.
