In the early morning on the lake sitting in the stern of the boat with his father rowing, he felt quite sure that he would never die.
-Ernest Hemingway, Indian Camp (1924)
In Our Time (1925) is Ernest Hemingway’s first collection of short stories published in the United States. A rewrite by the author of the 1924 French publication of the same name, it includes fifteen stories, two of which feature Nick Adams, Hemingway’s autobiographical character who is a child in Indian Camp (1924) and a young man in The Three Day Blow (1925). The stories utilize the iceberg theory, a term coined by Hemingway, meaning a minimalist approach of focusing on surface elements without exposing themes hidden in subtext. A definitive collection of Hemingway’s recurring themes of alienation, grief, and loss, this is a volume worthy of the term masterpiece.
