Summary | "Men Without Women" by Ernest Hemingway is a collection of short stories written in the late 1920s. The stories predominantly explore themes of masculinity, loneliness, and the complexities of relationships, often set against the backdrop of bullfighting, war, and personal struggles. Notable characters include Manuel Garcia, a dedicated yet weary bullfighter, as well as a range of other male figures who navigate their emotions and circumstances in a changing world. The opening of this collection introduces the character Manuel Garcia, who arrives at the office of Don Miguel Retana, a manager in the bullfighting world. Manuel, having recently recovered from an injury and feeling the weight of an uncertain future, is eager to return to the ring despite the risks involved. Conversations between Manuel and Retana reveal the harsh realities of a declining bullfighting career, where past glory is overshadowed by the present challenges. As they discuss opportunities for upcoming bouts, there is a palpable tension surrounding Manuel's determination to fight, showcasing Hemingway's signature themes of bravery and existential despair intertwined with a somber reflection on the nature of men facing their vulnerabilities.
