Description
A Moveable Feast is a personal and poignant account of Ernest Hemingway's time in Paris after World War I. This restored edition presents the original manuscript as the author prepared it to be published, offering a unique insight into Hemingway's early experiments with his craft and his experiences with friends and fellow writers. The book includes a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, Ernest's sole surviving son, and an introduction by the editor and grandson of the author, Sean Hemingway. It also features a number of unfinished, never-before-published Paris sketches, which reveal Hemingway's relationships with his son Jack and his first wife, Hadley, as well as his interactions with notable figures such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Madox Ford. This edition provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of letters in the 1920s, and is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of America's most celebrated writers.
