"But she might hold him. That was all that mattered now. To hold him. To hold him. Not to let him go. Make him stay." -Ernest Hemingway, The Torrents of Spring (1926) The Torrents of Spring (1926) by Ernest Hemingway is an amusing parody that pokes fun at the writers of the time, namely Hemingway's friend, Sherwood Anderson and his novel, Dark Laughter (1925).

This first long work of Hemingway was received with mixed reviews by his critics and compatriots; F. Scott Fitzgerald dubbed it a masterpiece.
