Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961) was one of the most important American writers of the twentieth century. His spare prose, sharp dialogue, and distinctive storytelling, which conveys meaning through what is left unsaid, had a profound influence on modern world literature. His major works include The Sun Also Rises, A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Old Man and the Sea. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 for The Old Man and the Sea and the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. Many of his works have been translated into languages around the world, including Tamil.
