In contrast to William Faulkner, whose writing is rather descriptive, Earnest Hemingway does not focus on minor, descriptive details. Rather, his
writing is more straight-forward, as is this passage from A Farewell to
Arms: “A doctor came in followed by a nurse. He held something in his two
hands that looked like a freshly skinned rabbit and hurried across the
corridor with it and in through another door. I went down to the door he
had gone into and found them in the room doing things to a new-born
child. The doctor held him up for me to see." *
