In Ernest Hemingway's short story Indian Camp, young Nick Adams accompanies his father, Dr. Adams, a physician, to assist in a difficult childbirth at a remote camp in Northern Michigan. The story is marked by stark contrasts: Nick's innocence versus the harsh realities of life and death, as his father performs a painful, unanesthetized caesarean section on a woman in labor. After the birth, they discover the woman's husband has committed suicide. The story explores themes of mortality, suffering, and the starkness of life through Nick's evolving understanding of pain and death, especially as he observes his father's detached professional demeanor.
