Which words would you use to characterize this story's style?
An author's writing approach can be used to characterize a story's style.
Hemingway is an inspiration for
the literary movements known as "plain language" and "minimalism" in his works. He avoids providing

style (for example, Nicks's service in the war is not acknowledged explicitly). His writing is clear-cut, realistic,
and succinct.
