Hemingway Ernest: Death in the Afternoon

Death in the Afternoon - Ernest Hemingway. A fascinating look at the history and grandeur of bullfighting, Death in the Afternoon is also a deeper contemplation on the nature of cowardice and bravery, sport and tragedy, and is enlivened throughout by Hemingway's pungent commentary on life and literature.
