《太陽(yáng)也照樣升起》發(fā)表于1926年，是海明威寫(xiě)作的第一部長(zhǎng)篇小說(shuō)，表現(xiàn)一戰(zhàn)后一些青年流落歐洲的不幸命運(yùn)。作品的主線(xiàn)是美國(guó)記者杰克·巴恩斯與英國(guó)姑娘勃瑞特·艾希利的戀愛(ài)故事，杰克在一戰(zhàn)中負(fù)傷，喪失了性能力；勃瑞特也在戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)中失去了親人，二人相戀卻無(wú)法結(jié)合。另一個(gè)追求勃瑞特的美國(guó)作家羅伯特，科恩雖仍對(duì)生活抱有浪漫的幻想，而實(shí)際上觀念陳腐、虛妄。作品表現(xiàn)了戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)給這些青年人帶來(lái)的生理和心理上的創(chuàng)傷。
一次，美國(guó)先鋒作家斯坦因夫人曾對(duì)海明威說(shuō)：“你們都是迷惘的一代”，海明威將這句話(huà)作為本書(shū)題詞，因而，《太陽(yáng)也照樣升起》成了“迷惘的一代”的代表作。
ERNEST HEMINGWAY（1899-1961），American author.Between the nud-igzos and the mid-950s，he produced most of his work，and in 1954 he won the Nobel Prize in Literature.Hemingway's fiction was successful because the characters he presented exhibited authenticity that resonated with his audience.
Many ofhis works are classics of American literature.The most famous of Hemingway's novels are The Sun Also Rises（1926），A FareweH to Arms（1929），The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber（1935），F(xiàn)or Whom the Bell Tolls（1940），and The Old Man and the Sea（1951）.
THAT winter Robert Cohn went over to America with his novel，and it was accepted by a fairly good publisher.His
going made an awful row I heard，and I think that was where Frances lost him，because several women were nice to him in New York，and when he came back he was quite changed.He was more enthusiastic about America than ever，and he was not so simple，and he was not so nice.The publishers had praised his novel pretty highly and it rather went to his head.Then several women had put themselves out to be nice to him，and his horizons had all shifted.For four years his horizon had been absolutely limited to his wife.For
three years，or almost three years，he had never seen beyond
Frances.I am sure he had never been in love in his life.
He had married on the rebound from the rotten time he had in college，and Frances took him on the rebound from his discovery that he had not been everything to his first wife.He was not in love yet but he realized that he was an attractive quantity to women，and that the fact of a woman
caring for him and wanting to live with him was not simply a divine miracle.This changed him so that he was not so pleasant to have around.Also，playing for higher stakes than he could afford in some rather steep bridge games with his New York connections，he had held cards and won several
hundred dollars.It made him rather vain of his bridge game，and he talked several times of how a man could always
make a living at bridge if he were ever forced to.Then there was another thing.He had been reading W.H.Hudson，That sounds like an innocent occupation，but Cohnhad read and reread"The Purple Land"."The Purple Land"is a very sinister book if read too late in life.It recountssplendid imaginary amorous adventures of a perfect Englishgentleman in an intensely romantic land，the sceneryof which is very well described.For a man to take it at thirty-four as a guide-book to what life holds is about as safe as it would be for a man of the same age to enter Wall Streetdirect from a French convent，equipped with a complete set of the more practical Alger books.Cohn，I believe，took every word of"The Purple Land"as literally as though it had been an R.G.Dun report.You understand me，he made some reservations，but on the whole the book to him was sound.It was all that was needed to set him off.I did not realize the extent to wl-uch it had set him off until one day he came into my office.
