1) The significance of the title is shows someone being an outsider. It is a WWII survivor who is injured in Italy. They do not know the language and it is extremely hard for them to learn it. They were all alienated.
2) The character who represents “Hemingway Hero” is the major because he has a hard life. His hand was injured and he lost his wife. He deals with the most suffering and about his
anger and resentment. He realizes his hand isn’t going to get better and even
though losing his wife was hard, he is trying to fight hard to get over it. The
major’s injury is a result of fighting and the narrator’s injury wasn’t all that
big because he was hurt because he was American. The major has an emotional
and physical wound.
3) The photographs are fake and are not direct
proof that these machines work. They are more of a motivation tactic. The major’s reaction he that he looks at the window instead of the photos. He doesn’t have any hope and he doesn’t really focus on what the doctors gives him. He goes to isolation and he is focuses elsewhere. He is focused on the suffering and lost.
