First Bantam Printing. Very Good condition. "Islands in the Stream" is a posthumous novel by Ernest Hemingway, first published in 1970, almost a decade after his death in 1961. The novel is divided into three parts: 1. Bimini - Thomas Hudson, a painter, lives in Bimini with his three sons. He enjoys a relatively tranquil life, indulging in fishing and art, until tragedy strikes. 2. Cuba - During World War II, Hudson becomes involved in intelligence work, reflecting on his life while pursuing Nazi submarines. 3. At Sea - Hudson takes to the sea to hunt Nazi submarines, confronting the violence and the solitude of his existence. The story explores classic Hemingway themes such as stoicism, solitude, and existential struggle, as well as the beauty and power of the natural world. It's also noted for its introspective look at the human condition and the personal cost of war.
