A bullfighter waits in the chapel before the kill. A soldier returns from the war and cannot sleep. Across fifteen stories and sixteen interchapters (brief, haunting vignettes of war, bullfighting, and violence), Hemingway builds a portrait of a world shattered by World War I—and the people trying to live in its aftermath. Nick Adams, Hemingway's semi-autobiographical alter ego, appears throughout: as a child watching his father deliver a baby by Caesarean section, as a young man wounded in Italy, as a traumatized veteran fishing alone in the backcountry. The stories are spare, muscular, and elliptical.

The collection was championed by F. Scott Fitzgerald and Edmund Wilson, who recognized its radical innovation. The stories featuring Nick Adams—based on Hemingway's own childhood in Michigan and his war experiences—would become the foundation of his reputation as a master of the short story.
