  • Summary

  • Welcome to the fifteenth of our eighteen shows celebrating the centenary of the Paris edition of Hemingway’s book of vignettes, in our time.

    This episode on Maera and Luis extends Hemingway’s exploration of bullfighting and violence. We begin by discussing the narrator's identity, how it is revealed in the story, and why that matters; by the end of the episode, we focus attention on the final lines of the vignette ("Yes. Yes. Yes.), exploring the relationship between Hemingway's work and Molly Bloom's soliloquy that ends James Joyce's Ulysses. Throughout the episode, we're fascinated by the triangulation of the narrator, Maera, and Luis and how it structures this curious vignette.

    Join us as we explore in our time before it became In Our Time!
