Lost Women of a Lost Generation


Lost Women of a Lost Generation
This paper discusses lost women of a lost generation, between the 1920s and the 1930s, "The Sun Also Rises" by Ernest Hemingway and "Good Morning, Midnight" by Jean Rhys.
1,150 words (approx. 4.6 pages) | 2 sources | 2002 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper states that both novels prominently feature women who live frivolously from day to day, desperately attempting to "buy" their happiness; or, at least, to buy the alcohol with which they may buy "forgetfulness" of their traumatic pasts. The author believes that, in many respects, the character of Sasha Jensen from "Good Morning, Midnight" may be seen as an older version of Brett Ashley from "The Sun Also Rises". The paper states that these two female characters serve as cultural "bookends" or markers to the long intermission between the wars.
