Historia Magna, 2025

Lost Generation: Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and the American Expatriate Experience by Dean Wallace delves into the lives and works of two of the most influential writers of the 20th century, Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald, as they navigated the post-World War I era. Set against the backdrop of the intellectual and artistic hub of Paris in the 1920s, the book explores the expatriate experience that shaped their writing and personal struggles. Through a deep analysis of their works—such as The Great Gatsby, A Farewell to Arms, and The Sun Also Rises—the book examines themes of disillusionment, identity, love, and the myth of the American Dream. By comparing the distinct yet intertwined lives of Hemingway and Fitzgerald, Wallace provides a rich portrait of the Lost Generation, capturing how their search for meaning in a fractured world led to both profound artistic achievements and personal decline. The book uncovers the emotional toll of war, the quest for self-discovery, and the existential questions that haunted a generation forever changed by conflict and cultural upheaval.
