You are all a lost generation. --Quoted from a conversation with Gertrude Stein① One generation goes and another generation comes, but the earth remains forever.The sun rises and the sun sets.Return to where you came from.The wind blows to the south, then turns to the north, keeps spinning, and returns to the original path.All the rivers flow into the sea, but the sea is not full.Where did the rivers flow, to where do they return. -- "Ecclesiastes"② ① In the summer of 1924, when Stein had a conversation with Hemingcheng, he called the young people who participated in the First World War the "lost generation".It was originally considered by Hemingway as the title of this book.

②Quoted from "Bible Ecclesiastes", chapter 1, verses 4 to 7. The word "the sun rises" is written as "Thesunalsoariseth" in the English translation of the Bible.Hemingway finally adopted the title of the book, switching to the modern English spelling.The title of the Chinese translation of this book is translated accordingly.
