Use of Flashbacks on Hemingway's Short Story (Essay Sample)
Hemingway’s short story illustrates Harry and Helen’s experiences while on vacation in Africa.

As he reflects on his experiences in the Bulgaria mountains, Harry feels the emptiness and loneliness he felt while in Paris. The flashback to Constantinople is the imagery of conflict, heartbreaks, and emotional strive caused by a life half-lived. Hemingway’s depiction of death in the flashback illustrates the painful end of unmet expectations.
