What is the author's style in Islands in the Stream by Ernest Hemingway?

Hemingway is remembered as the voice of the Lost Generation, those born around the period between World War I and the Great Depression. His use of a journalistic style in fiction marks this voice, where short sentences trump the longer structures common in earlier literature. Realistic dialog and fresh descriptive narration, common to Lost Generation writers, along with a sense of detachment and drifting, characterize Hemingway's work.
