This story of marital discord and a failed fishing expedition was, according to Hemingway's later statements, the first in which he constructed a story on “the principle of the iceberg”, by omitting details that he knew well and trusting the reader to infer them by a careful reading of the surface story.
Although six of the ten poems in the collection had appeared in Poetry: A Magazine of Verse, at the time one of the leading organs of the Modernist movement, Hemingway's poetry is less impressive than his prose.

 Literary Encyclopedia: 88 Poems
88 Poems (1979), edited by Nicholas Gerogiannis, is a compilation of all the known poems written by Ernest Hemingway, from a juvenile piece written in 1912 and preserved in a family scrapbook to a final unpublished poem attributed to 1956.
In between are contributions to the newspaper and literary magazine of Hemingway's high school, the poetic contents of his first book, Three Stories and Ten Poems (1923), contributions to little magazines during the 1920s, and a number of poems, often deeply personal, never intended for publication.
At their best these poems are terse and powerful: “Mitrailliatrice” draws an extended metaphor comparing the author's typewriter to an obsolete early machine gun, and his short sentences to an “infantry of the mind” slowly fighting its way across “difficult terrain”.

His reaction is revealing: he could hardly contest the stories' original dates of publication, so he wrote two long paragraphs in the second letter recollecting the dates and places of writing the stories.
The fifth story was the first he wrote, but not "in Paris in 1921." The sixth story ("On the Quai at Smyrna") was the twenty-seventh he wrote and the thirtieth he published four years later as an introduction to Scribner's 1930 edition of In Our Time.
To read the stories in the order of their writing is to witness Hemingway's own discovery of the art of the story and his exploration of its boundaries--but that, it seems, was something he preferred to obscure rather than reveal, and for his own reasons to the end of his life.
