DIVING BENEATH THE SURFACE WITH THE

ICEBERG THEORYYOU

HEMINGWAY’S WRITING

ICE BERG THEORY.If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an ice-berg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water. A writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing. –Ernest Hemingway
