The Paris Wife
Stating the obvious here, but Hemingway is an ass. And I'm thinking that spending 6 hours yesterday inhaling for book club tomorrow wasn't my smartest decision.As a result, everything is muddled up in my brain right now.
So Hemingway married an older woman, and then enjoy several blissful years together, but eventually Hemingway does what he will always do-run and cheat. I can't say I have ever read anything of Heminway's but The Old Man and Sea so I can't comment on his writing. Just his ability as a human.
This, however, isn't Heminway's story it's Hadley's story. It's the story of Paris between the wars when things were loose-morals, drinks, and life. That story is amazing, well written and well researched.
So, I enjoyed it-despite Hemingway being an ass.
