<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>This vibrant portrait of Paris in the 1920s, published posthumously in 1964, is vintage Hemingway--evocative, self-mocking and frank. In an extraordinary chronicle of the sights, sounds, and tastes of Paris in a bygone era, Hemingway offers readers a view of his life and the people that populated his expatriate world--Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound and other literary luminaries.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b><i>"There is never any ending to Paris and the memory of each person who has lived in it differs from that of any other." </i></b><b>--Ernest Hemingway, <i>A Moveable Feast</i></b> <p/>Ernest Hemingway's classic memoir of Paris in the 1920s remains one of his most beloved works. Filled with tender memories of his first wife Hadley and their son Jack; irreverent portraits of literary luminaries such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gertrude Stein; and insightful recollections of his own early experiments with his craft, <i>A Moveable Feast </i>brilliantly evokes the exuberant mood of Paris after World War I and the youthful spirit, unbridled creativity, and unquenchable enthusiasm that Hemingway himself epitomized. It is an elegy to a remarkable group of expatriates and a testament to the risks and rewards of the writerly life.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A reprise of a now legendary time when Hemingway was young and happy."<br> <b>--<i>Kirkus Reviews</i></b> <p/>"Written with that controlled lyricism of which he was master, these pages are marvelously evocative."<br> <b>--<i>The New York Times</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Ernest Hemingway did more to influence the style of English prose than any other writer of his time. He has been called "the most important author since Shakespeare," by John O'Hara in <i>The New York Times Book Review</i>. The publication of <i>The Sun Also Rises</i> and <i>A Farewell to Arms</i> immediately established him as one of the greatest literary lights of the 20th century. His classic novella <i>The Old Man and the Sea </i>won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. Hemingway was also awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. His life and accomplishments are explored in-depth in the PBS documentary film from Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, <i>Hemingway</i>. He died in 1961.
