Gee, I wonder what happens next...

This is the most uneventful novel I have ever encountered. All the people are doing is what they say they are going to do next. The onlyforeshadowing skills needed is when Cohn repeatitly gets pset, and acts like he will start a fight, and thanks to the note early on about his boxing technique, any reader could more than likely foreshadow that the fight was going to end with Cohn wiping the floor with the other men on page 195. "'I say, you were out cold.' 'Where were you at?' 'I was around.' 'He knocked Mike down, too.'" (Hemingway 195.) It is very difficult to foreshadow any events in this book, becasue the fight was the first official event yet. In a book that doesn't really move the story along in a normal style, how can one predict normal events?
