Fitzgerald’s "Winter Dreams" and Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises. Both Judy and Brett are very loud and forward; they are certain to make their presence known in a crowd and neither has a problem with overtly pursuing their targets. They never seem to run out of energy when it comes to social functions‚ and their extravagant social lives tend to intrigue men.

In Ernest Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises‚ Lady Brett Ashley appears‚ on the surface‚ to be a liberated woman- she refuses to commit to any one man‚ and makes her decisions based upon what she wants to do. Upon further analysis‚ though‚ Lady Brett Ashley’s independence is shallow. Having decided that she is in love with Pedro Romero‚ a young bullfighter‚ and needs him for her own self-respect‚ she loses control over herself. She relies on Jake Barnes‚ a longtime friend

Stereotypically‚ a man is‚ above all else‚ sexually driven; always attempting to persuade a beautiful woman to accompany him behind closed doors.

Ernest Hemmingway tells the story "Hills like White Elephants" nearly through pure dialog about two lovers conflicted over a serious decision. As the story progresses and through their tight conversation he reveals to us a great deal about their personalities‚ but leaves the details of the relationship between the two hidden. He gives his audience just enough information to find out the details of his story through detective work instead of coming outright by writing "Their relationship has suffered

Jake Barnes in The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway is an American veteran of World War I who lives and works in Paris as a newsman.

Due to a wound in WWI‚ he is essentially sexless. The Hemingway code hero indulges in all aspects of the word pleasure‚ mainly those of alcohol and women. Second‚ he breaks the Hemingway code
