"The Sun Also Rises" by Ernest Hemingway is a poignant novel that captures the disillusionment and aimlessness of the post-World War I "Lost Generation." Set in the 1920s, it follows American journalist Jake Barnes and his group of expatriate friends as they journey from Paris to the Spanish countryside for the Pamplona bullfights. The narrative delves into themes of love, betrayal, and the search for meaning in a world forever altered by war.
