Ernest Hemingway was an American novelist and short-story writer, born on July 21, 1899, in Oak Park, Illinois. His father was a country physician who taught him hunting and fishing, while his mother was a religious woman who led him to play the cello and sing in the choir. Hemingway's early years were spent in the outdoors, which influenced his writing style and themes. He began to write in high school, where he was active and outstanding. Hemingway served as a young reporter at the Kansas City Star, where he learned some aspects of style that would follow him as an accomplished writer for all his days. He joined a volunteer ambulance unit in the Italian army during World War I and was wounded. Between 1925 and 1929, Hemingway wrote some of his major works, such as "In Our Time," "The Sun Also Rises," and "A Farewell to Arms". His writing style is characterized by its succinct and lucid prose that exerts a powerful influence on American and British fiction in the 20th century. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. He published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two nonfiction works. Three of his novels, four short-story collections, and three nonfiction works were published posthumously. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature. Some of his notable works include "The Old Man and the Sea," "For Whom the Bell Tolls," "The Sun Also Rises," "A Farewell to Arms," "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber," and "The Snows of Kilimanjaro".
