Are Hemingway's short stories any good?

Any good: short stories, never read

Yeah. One cool thing about them is that they're so stripped down you can spin interesting interpretations off of them. I'm still convinced In Our Time is largely a criticism of forced masculinity.

The Big Two-Hearted River is the comfiest fucking story I've ever read, also.

Better than the novels for me. Still can hardly read Hemingway cos I loathe his female characters so much.

Thats probably because he loathes females

Joyce called A Clean, Well Lighted Place one of the best short stories ever written

I love his female characters. I want to marry Catherine Barkley.

Yes, anon.

He's surprisingly underrated by the current wave of opinion-havers. I wonder why?

He's surprisingly emotional, or should I say emotive. I like the guy desu

They're better than his novels I'd say
