The Sun Also Rises is a novel of the so-called Lost Generation of the post WW1 era. The story follows a group of American and British expatriates as they travel from Paris to Pamplona in Spain for the bullfighting festival including the Running of the Bulls through the streets of the town. Hemingway’s central theme is the dissolute and aimless lives of men who are irretrievably damaged by war. The novel was published in the United States in October 1926 by Scribner's. A year later, Jonathan Cape published the novel in London under the title Fiesta.
