Ernest Hemingway is considered one of the greatest authors of the 20th century. He has won a Novel Prize for Literature and has written many critically acclaimed novels and a collection of short stories.
Hemingway was born in what today is Oak Park Illinois, and had a rough childhood, from being dressed as a girl by his mother and a strict father. Hemingway served in World War I and was a correspondent during World War II. His stories are filled with deeper meanings that makes the reader think about what he is reading to clearly get the ideas behind Hemingway's writings, he also writes without sugar coding and is more often than not he has a very strong masculine voice in his stories.
Many people criticize Hemingway in the basis that he makes up stories and is very dereogative towards women, but I believe that Hemingway is clearly on the position to use stereotypes. Many of us believe that stereotypes are too much broad and can describe everyone, which is true, but Hemingway is known for writing nothing but the truth so if he describes a woman character as: weak, annoying, controlling, or even girlish is because that was his perception of that specific character. I believe that after all Hemingway went through his life, his writings were the things that helped him get away from his problems and sort of enter his own mini-universe, which seem to have worked as he has written some of the greatest novels.
