Men Without Women is a collection of short stories by Ernest Hemingway, consisting of fourteen stories that explore themes of loneliness, isolation, and heartbreak.

First editions of 'Men Without Women' were published by Charles Scribner's Sons in 1927 with a black cloth cover and gold lettering. Identifying points include the mention of 'In Our Time' on the upper right of the front cover, '1927' on the copyright page but without any additional printings listed, and a lack of dust jacket as they were often discarded over time. Always verify with a professional as rebinding and reproductions can mislead.
