I drank beer. It was nice. I said to her. You look nice. As I walked in the rain.

This is a typical type of Heminway sentence. His style of writing expresses the sheer understated emotion of the war. Hemingway's pessimism can been seen to be quite Larkin-esque. I like the full stops best. They give me time to stop and think. Here ends the reading.

I absolutely love Hemingway's style. It is precise and it does, indeed, gives a chance to stop and think!
