A bunch of irredeemable, unlikable assholes do nothing. Except the part where one gets cucked.

One of my high school english teachers despised Hemingway and termed him a 'misogynist.' But isn't the entire book about how a bunch of orbiters agree to go on a trip with a women that leads them on. It's true that the only female character in the book is a terrible piece of shit. But the rest of the male figures agree to go along with her. Lady Brett is terrible; but a bunch of dudes who wanted to fuck her agreed to go on a week-long trip to Spain with the goal of fucking her.
I want to know other opinions on this book

Any books that delve into characters like Brett, or better yet the dynamic between Brett and Jake?

Couldn't tell you, but I'm planning on starting pic related around sundown.

Just finished this. Loved most of it and enjoyed the way the characters interacted, but the last 50 pages or so were very difficult to get through.

Thoughts?

The only book I regret spending time on.

So.. every book?

Is there a reason why people always give me a dirty look when I say this (pic) is my favorite book?
