Professor del Gizzo will discuss Ernest Hemingway's posthumously published novel, Islands in the Stream (1970), as a work of transition away from the author's celebrated early style based on his theory of omission to a later style based on inclusion and emotion expression. Professor del Gizzo argues that this transition was prompted by Hemingway's effort to comprehend vulnerability and loss after World War II.
