Earnest Hemmingway's Nick Adams Stories

"The End of Something" shows when Nick breaks up with Marjorie after a long time of being together. "The Three Day Blow" shows when Nick went to see his friend, Bill, and they get drunk and talk about relationships. Bill talks about how it was good that Nick took his advice and broke up with Marjorie. Nick is not so sure. He misses her and misses the relationship. "Big Two Hearted River" shows Nick in complete solitude from the outside world. He has gone camping to fish for trout. He leaves the confusing world with it's relationships--girls and friends--and heartbreak to be on his own. To not depend on anyone but himself. To rediscover truth in solid, unchanging nature that has no opinions or judgments on him. To find peace.
