Hemmingway's Iceberg Theory
Hemingway believed that a big part of what makes an iceberg so impressive is that only one-eighth of it is above water, with the rest left for us to conjure up with our imagination.
In writing, the eighth visible on the surface is the words and images, while the submerged greater portion comprises the thought and emotion.
The former is what the author puts down with their pen, the latter is contained within.

"His subject-matter will be determined by the age he lives in – at least this is true in tumultuous, revolutionary ages like our own – but before he ever begins to write he will have acquired an emotional attitude from which he will never completely escape."
