Specifications
The Torrents of Spring hold a unique place in Hemingway's work because it is a hilarious farce.
Written in simple, short sentences and with repetitions of words and phrases that enhance the comedic element, The Torrents of Spring supposedly recount the romantic and other adventures of two workers in a factory making pumps in a small northern town, Petoskey, but actually parodies Sherwood Anderson's Dark Laugh, while simultaneously brimming with satirical references to John Dos Passos, F. Scott Fitzgerald, D. H. Lawrence, and others.
If Hemingway had demonstrated through his works that he was clearly one of the greatest American writers of the 20th century, in The Torrents of Spring he also proves to be a great humorist.
