Ernest Hemingway's First Published Collection of Short Stories
In Our Time is Ernest Hemingway's first major work, a powerful collection of short stories that introduced his revolutionary minimalist style and thematic focus on war, loss, and disillusionment. Originally published in 1925, the book features a series of interconnected vignettes and stories—many involving the semi-autobiographical character Nick Adams—that reflect the emotional scars of World War I and the fragmented psyche of the modern age. With its stark prose and unflinching realism, In Our Time laid the foundation for Hemingway’s literary legacy and remains a landmark in American modernist literature.
In Our Time (1925) includes multiple vignettes along with the following short stories:
Indian Camp
The Doctor and the Doctor's Wife
The End of Something
The Three Day Blow
The Battler

Soldier's Home
The Revolutionist
Mr. and Mrs. Elliot
