"Torrents of Spring" is a novella, published in 1926. Set in Northern Michigan, the novel concerns two men who work at a pump factory.  World War I veteran YOGI JOHNSON and writer SCRIPPS O'NEILL are both searching for perfect women. Yogi Johnson has a period during which he anguishes over the fact that he doesn't seem to desire any woman.  At last he falls in love with an indigenous American woman who enters a restaurant clothed only in moccasins, the wife of one of the two indigenous Americans he befriends near the end of the story.  Johnson is cured of his impotence when, viewing the naked woman, he is overcome by a "new feeling" which he attributes to Mother Nature, and they "light out" for the territories. The novel was written as a parody of SHERWOOD ANDERSON in an attempt to free himself from his contract with Boni and Liveright publishers.  By rejecting "Torrents," Hemingway was released from contract and could sign with Charles Scribners. 90 pages.  I offer combined shipping.
