}} Nick Adams, the protagonist, was inspired to establish Indian Camp after observing a lady give birth during the Greco-Turkish War, according to the deleted epilogue to Hemmingway's "Big Two-Hearted River." Hemmingway had a similar experience, but the only similarities include that the husband was present, the birth was performed in a raw setting, and a terrified child was present. The two men have the same tale structure, but their scenarios are different. Nick wonders at the end of the story if death was difficult, much as Hemmingway contemplated suicide.

}} “Indian Camp,” described as one of the best in the collection, dramatizes what appears to be Adams' first confrontation with profound personal suffering. In Our Time, Hemingway explores men's responses. Human and animal suffering, and especially women's suffering, affect their characters. The child who cannot separate cannot see another suffering and replaces attentive love with fantasy. Nick never has the chance to learn how to reciprocate, to see his mother’s suffering in a way that would have made her feel compassion for him.
