About this listen

 Ernest Hemingway's Winner Take Nothing contains fourteen stories of varying length. Some of them have appeared in magazines but the majority have not been published before. The characters and backgrounds are widely varied. Some stories included are “A Clean, Well-Lighted Place,” a story about one man’s night in a café; “Homage to Switzerland” concerns various conversations at a Swiss railway-station restaurant; “The Gambler, the Nun, and the Radio” is laid in the accident ward of a hospital in Western United States; and so on.

Ernest Hemingway made his literary start as a short-story writer. He has always excelled in that medium, and this volume reveals him at his best.(P)2008 Simon and Schuster, Inc. Anthologies Anthologies & Short Stories Classics Fiction Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Short Stories

Some great short stories, nicely read by Stacey Keach. Unfortunately, the collection of stories is split into four, rather than being split into the separate short stories.

Please split up the separate stories!

Well read. I am generally a fan but these are among Hemingways least impressive short stories…graphic but not his best.

Hemingways poorest ?

Excellent stories by Hemingway, Excellent narration by Keach.
But why the ridiculous and annoying cello music??? It is distracting and makes it an impossible bedtime book.

The music ruins it
