Cat in the Rain - Ernest Hemingway

Author: Ernest Hemingway

Genre: Short Story
Rating: 3 stars.

A story that displays well Hemingway's popular theory of omission. What is said through the words is limited; what is unsaid between the lines steals the show.

This is the tale of a neglected wife and an disinterested husband. The story ends at a point where the drama might begin. Leaves a lot to our imagination.

I liked it enough, but it won't be my favourite Hemingway short.

As the story is in the public domain, you can read it from any site offering such tales. I read it from the below link:
