Hills Like White Elephant

The fiction resonates with me deeply. The simple use of dialogue attracts and retains my interest in the storyline, eager to find out what the operation is. Although the first time reading the story did not paint the full picture of the story, I was fully intrigued to the couple's frustration. Hemingway meticulously crafts the story to shed light on couple's problem. I see the frustration that the couple possessed as a necessary process. In a healthy relationship, both sides should sacrifice and search for common ground regarding the conflict. Since no one is the same, different beliefs may intrude and alienate each other, only compromising is the most efficient vehicle to resolve the dispute. After reading the fiction, I'm leaning toward Jill's position. Jill may be young but her devotion to the relationship cannot be ignored. As opposed to Jill, the American man seems disingenuous who perpetually asks Jill to comply to his proposition. In this case, the American man should let the baby be born naturally, if he truly cares about the relationship with Jill. Abortion is a mark that will never be washed away in Jill's memory, and the man should not take this matter lightly.
