The Sun Also Rises was recognized as one of the four best novel of Hemingway and even some of his companions think it was the best of his works.The background of The Sun Also Rises was the festival in Spain in 1925 and the subject of this novel was founded through the experiences and feeling Hemingway had in that event.In this novel it narrateed a group of expatricates making a trip to Pamplona for the bullfight.

It was much a novel of character than of event. The characters include Jake Barnes,an American who fought in Italy and was made impotent by a war wound;Bill Gordon,Jack's friend and his fishing companion;Lady Brett Ashley,an English woman who is degenerating into a nymphomaniac;Mike Campbell who follows Brett and hoping to marry her;Robert Cohn,a jewish journalist who suffers from an inferiority complex and is shunned by the other characters.

The three leading characters,Jack Barnes,Brett Ashley,Mike Compbell are the representative of the Lose Generation.They all suffered due to the war directly or indirectly.Hemingway humanized the character Jake Brners by creating a man who bears the wounds of the war in a profoundly personal way yet combines his disillusiionment with traditional American values of hard work and just compensation.His wound has not changed his relationships with men, and he makes friends easily,exchanging banter with strangers and wit with his friends,but his deepest feelings are for Brett Ashley.His love for her,and his pain and disillusionment at the impossibility of their having a life together,underscore everything he relates.

The female leading role,Brett Ashley was superficially an elegant and unconventional, indulgent, dare to speak and dare to do woman but her inner heart fulled of sadness and helplessness.

This novel shows the people's hater,despair and numbness toward the war through the portray of the roles'tragic life which is also the ture picture of the Lost Generation after the WWI. And their lost and confusion is ubiqiutous in the postwar American society.
