The Sun also Rises

The Sun Also Rises is one of Ernest Hemingway’s defining works - a vivid portrait of ambition, heartbreak, and searching for meaning in a post-war world. Set in 1920s Paris and Spain, the novel follows Jake Barnes and a group of expatriate friends as they drift through cafés, bullfights, and long nights filled with hope, disillusionment, and restless energy.

Through Hemingway’s crisp, understated writing, the story captures the emotional confusion of the “Lost Generation” - a group trying to rebuild their identity after World War I. Themes of love, longing, courage, aimlessness, and self-discovery run throughout the novel. The Sun Also Rises remains a modern classic, celebrated for its atmosphere, characters, and timeless insight into human nature.
