The Torrents of Spring: A Romantic Novel in Honor of the Passing of a Great Race

by Ernest Hemingway

Overview

Post World War I, two men are attempting to find the perfect woman, although they both disagree about what might be considered ideal. Yogi Johnson, a World War I veteran, struggles with his lack of attraction to the opposite sex, until one day he's met with a gorgeous Native American woman. Scripps O'Neill, reeling from being left by his wife and young daughter, befriends a waitress and tumbles down a path of commitment. A parody that pokes fun at the great race of writers, The Torrents of Spring is one of Ernest Hemingway's first long works. Written in ten days, it was considered a masterpiece by F. Scott Fitzgerald but was criticized heavily by other writers at the time.
