The Snows of Kilimanjaro “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” written by Ernest Hemingway starts out in Africa where a couple is resting in a tent. Harry, the protagonist, is suffering from gangrene which, he has caught in the bush. The story revolves around his relationship with his cash-filled lover and a reflection on the past while powerful symbolism provides depth to each old story. The antagonist can be seen as death or lifestyle regrets, but ultimately Harry dies while the gangrene spreads at the end, but he has a vision of flying over Africa and finally Kilimanjaro. The story chews about the idea of our satisfaction or dissatisfaction at the time of our deaths and the mystery of the experience as a whole. One of the most important methods Hemingway uses in this story to reveal his message is symbolism. Ernest Hemingway is not only known for his symbolism he even has his own theory on it. In “The Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway: Critical Essays” by Benson, Gennaro Santangelo writes, “Hemingway’s “iceburg” theory has often caused critical confusion readings of the short stories.”(250) This style greatly goes along with the “The Snows of Kilimanjaro” as at first glance we see a man dying, but at a second look we see what makes people truly happy
