A man's code

    I think Hemingway had some underlying issues. After reading "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber" I was very disappointed that Francis died. Just as he was gaining self confidence from hunting the buffalo he was shot down by the same women, his wife, who had obviously been shooting him down for years. I thought the same as Mr. Wilson she did it on purpose. I hardly saw where Mr. Macomber achieved heroism. As a women I felt the character of Margot was trashy and mean. I wonder now if all the women in Heminway's stories are similar. I saw Mr. Macomber only being sure of his money, but without confidence in anything else.
