This article analyses one of Ernest Hemingway's best short-stories. Full of ironies, evocations and parallels, the work has many of the underlying themes of Hemingway's fiction. Through the theme of hunting in Africa, the closeness to the wilderness and the confrontation between life and death, Hemingway offers his perspective on happiness.
