For Ernest Hemingway, writing is the part of his life which is nothing but first-hand experience. In his stories he pumps out his life-blood. His stories do not contain what we generally call story-element i.e. some fabricated thrilling incidents strung and interwoven together to provide pastime to a leisurely class of people who live smilingly and call life pleasure. Dean Gauss, Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway happened to discuss the story Big Two-Hearted River. The two accused Ernest of having written a story in which 'nothing happened' and hence lacked in "human interest.” His stories cannot be read at a glance. There is much more that first meets to eyes of the reader. Dean Gauses also realised that his own return to the story was profitable.
