This book was scanned from a UK edition of Fiesta (the UK title) and checked against a US edition.

The working title of this book was "Fiesta", but Hemingway changed the title before publication in the USA to "The Sun Also Rises."

In the 1920s Hemingway was an American expat living in Paris and starting his career as a writer. One year Hemingway and three friends took a road trip to Pamplona in Spain for the Fiesta and the running of the bulls. This novel is based on that trip.

(I'm not all that fond of Hemingway, but this book and "The Old Man and the Sea" have been sitting on my bookshelves, largely forgotten, for many years. )
