Up in Michigan -Ernest Hemingway- 199 / 365 of reading one short story every day.


Up in Michigan

“Up in Michigan” is a tale of an unequal romantic encounter and the disillusionment that results from it. Liz Coates, while obsessed with Jim Gilmore, the town blacksmith, is unprepared for a whiskey-soaked Jim’s sexual advances one fall evening. The sexual encounter that results has been the subject of fierce debate among Hemingway scholars; some term it “rape” while others argue Liz seduced Jim.
