1. Introduction
Gertrude Stein categorized the young artists who took part in the First World War as the "lost generation" when she talked to Hemingway in 1924. The "Lost generation" were born between 1891 and 1905 and most of them were white people from the middle class or above with the majority of men. Actually the "lost generation" came into being under the consequences of the First World War and the economic crisis. These young artists were similar in their age, experience, emotion and their works which gradually formed a new school of literature. Meanwhile, the Lost Generation reveals the mental outlook and culture thought which gain popularity in America, even in the whole Europe, representing the thoughts and sentiments of the young men who took part in the war.
