Apologies for re-post. There was a technical issue in the previous upload.

The film adaptation of this story was Andrei Tarkovsky's first student work while studying at VGIK - and probably the first acting work of Shukshin, a wonderful writer, actor and director.

I took the story to be totally summed up in the last to lines. Nick saying he can’t stand to think about a man just holed up awaiting his end, which will be gruesome, and then being told to not think about it. How many people who orbit our lives are listless, awaiting their awful fate which they and we know is coming, and we don’t think about it. Hemingway was one of those people

My first Hemingway book was Snows of Kilimanjaro and I couldn’t get into it but I’ll definitely have to give this a read

I wonder if Dusty Rhodes sent Al and Max to kill Ole or did Ric Flair send them once they kicked Ole out of the Horsemen... 🤔 WOOOOOOO! (Seriously though, this story had to be where wrestler Ole Anderson got his name from.)

Nick is a coward who doesn't know he's a coward until he goes to warn Ole. George is a coward who knows he's a cowald so he gets Nick to placate his guilt. And Sam, being a Blsck, is a coward who knows he's a coward due to his real life experiences, hence he warns Nick and George not to get involved.
