Ernest Hemingway created a style of writing that captivated a generation. Owing as much to music as it did to literature, it had a tonality that resonated like a drumbeat. Its hypnotic, incantatory nature was birthed under the mentoring eyes of Gertrude Stein and James Joyce during his literary apprenticeship and buffeted with the journalistic machismo of the hard-living, hard-drinking man of action he became afterwards. Despite the acres of words that have been written by and about him, Hemingway continues to elude biographers with his complexity. His first wife, Hadley Richardson, said he was more complex than geometry. Aubrey Malone captures him in all his guises here—from boxer to braggart, hunter to hero, fisherman to ‘dangerous’ friend. In the end, when he bagged his last trophy with a self-administered bullet to the head, he went against the ‘grace under pressure’ credo that had defined him for so much of his life. Ernest Hemingway: Flawed Genius investigates the man behind the myth, a writer who was a mystery even to himself.

Published posthumously in 1964, A Moveable Feast remains one of Ernest Hemingway''s most beloved works. Since Hemingway''s personal papers were released in 1979, scholars have examined and debated the changes made to the text before publication. Now this new special restored edition presents the original manuscript as the author prepared it to be published. Featuring a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, Ernest''s sole surviving son, and an introduction by the editor and grandson of the author, Seán Hemingway, this new edition also includes a number of unfinished, never-before-published Paris sketches revealing experiences that Hemingway had with his son Jack and his first wife, Hadley. Also included are irreverent portraits of other luminaries, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Madox Ford, and insightful recollections of his own early experiments with his craft. Sure to excite critics and readers alike, the restored edition of A Moveable Feast brilliantly evokes the exuberant mood of Paris after World War I and the unbridled creativity and enthusiasm that Hemingway himself experienced. In the world of letters it is a unique insight into a great literary generation, by one of the best American writers of the twentieth century.

The definitive edition of the classic novel of love during wartime, featuring all of the alternate endings: “Fascinating…serves as an artifact of a bygone craft, with handwritten notes and long passages crossed out, giving readers a sense of an author’s process” (The New York Times). Written when Ernest Hemingway was thirty years old and lauded as the best American novel to emerge from World War I, A Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a beautiful English nurse. Set against the looming horrors of the battlefield—weary, demoralized men marching in the rain during the German attack on Caporetto; the profound struggle between loyalty and desertion—this gripping, semiautobiographical work captures the harsh realities of war and the pain of lovers caught in its inexorable sweep. Ernest Hemingway famously said that he rewrote the ending to A Farewell to Arms thirty-nine times to get the words right. This edition collects all of the alternative endings together for the first time, along with early drafts of other essential passages, offering new insight into Hemingway’s craft and creative process and the evolution of one of the greatest novels of the twentieth ...

The Letters of Ernest Hemingway, Volume 5, spanning 1932 through May 1934, traces the completion and publication of Death in the Afternoon and Winner Take Nothing. During this intensely active period, Hemingway hunts in Arkansas and Wyoming, fishes the waters off Key West and Cuba, revisits Madrid and Paris, and undertakes a long-anticipated African safari. He witnesses transitions at home and abroad: the deepening Great Depression, Prohibition-era rumrunning, revolution in Cuba, and political unrest in Spain. His readership and celebrity continue to expand as he begins writing for the new men''s magazine Esquire. As the volume ends, Hemingway has just acquired his beloved boat, Pilar. The letters detail these events as well as his relationships with his family, friends, publishers, critics and literary contemporaries including editor Maxwell Perkins, Archibald MacLeish, John Dos Passos, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott Fitzgerald. Together the letters paint an intimate self-portrait of this multi-faceted, self-confident, energetic artist in his prime.

A collection of reflections on writing and the nature of the writer from one the greatest American writers of the 20th century.Throughout Hemingway’s career as a writer, he maintained that it was bad luck to talk about writing—that it takes off “whatever butterflies have on their wings and the arrangement of hawk’s feathers if you show it or talk about it.” Despite this belief, by the end of his life he had done just what he intended not to do. In his novels and stories, in letters to editors, friends, fellow artists, and critics, in interviews and in commissioned articles on the subject, Hemingway wrote often about writing. And he wrote as well and as incisively about the subject as any writer who ever lived… This book contains Hemingway’s reflections on the nature of the writer and on elements of the writer’s life, including specific and helpful advice to writers on the craft of writing, work habits, and discipline. The Hemingway personality comes through in general wisdom, wit, humor, and insight, and in his insistence on the integrity of the writer and of the profession itself. —From the Preface by Larry W. Phillips

Pro mnoho lidí představuje Ernest Hemingway spíše mozaiku mýtů než člověka: vojáka, sportovce, lovce, expatriota a samozřejmě spisovatele. Ale pod těmito legendami stále uniká jeho skutečný život. Jak vypadal jako rozesmátý kluk či mladý voják? Co psal ve svých nejdůvěrnějších dopisech? Jak ho změnily jízdenky, které držel v ruce cestou z Francie do Španělska nebo napříč americkým Středozápadem, a co si na těchto cestách zapisoval, aby to z toho později vznikla povídka nebo román? Ernest Hemingway – Svědectví jednoho života zodpoví tyto i mnohé další otázky. Celý svazek, s předmluvou Hemingwayova syna Patricka a doslovem jeho vnuka Seana, připravil správce Hemingwayovy pozůstalosti, který též napsal úvod. Tato bohatě vypravená kniha, osvětlující autorův život ze všech možných stran, vypráví příběh jeho nesmírně úspěšné spisovatelské dráhy prostřednictvím předmětů, jichž se dotýkal, okamžiků, které prožil, myšlenek, jež se mu každý den honily hlavou.

I hope you will find some that you like- In going where you have to go, and doing what you have to do, and seeing what you have to see, you dull and blunt the instrument you write with. But I would rather have it bent and dulled and know I had to put it on the grindstone and hammer it into shape and put a whetstone to it, and know that I had something to write about, than to have it bright and shining, and nothing to say, or smooth and well-oiled in the closet, but unused.''A collection of Hemingway''s first forty-nine short stories, featuring a brief introduction by the author and lesser known as well as familiar tales, including ''Up in Michigan'', ''Fifty Grand'', and ''The Light of the World'', and the Snows of Kilimanjaro, Winner Take Nothing'' and Men Without Women collections.

Men Without Women was a milestone in Hemingway''s career. Fiesta had already established him as a novelist of exceptional power, but with these short stories, his second collection, he showed that it is possible, within the space of a few pages, to recreate a scene with absolute truth, bringing to life details observed only by the eye of a uniquely gifted artist. Hemingway''s men are bullfighters and boxers, hired hands and hard drinkers, gangsters and gunmen. Each of their stories deals with masculine toughness unsoftened by woman''s hand. Incisive, hard-edged, pared down to the bare minimum, they are classic Hemingway territory - they helped establish him as one of the great literary authors of the twentieth century, and one of the best American authors of all time.

A forensic psychiatrist's corrective and innovative diagnosis of the conditions that led to Ernest Hemingway's suicideHemingway's Brain is the first forensic psychiatric examination of Nobel Prize–winning author Ernest Hemingway. Andrew Farah argues that, despite popular mythology, the writer was not manic depressive, and his alcohol abuse and characteristic narcissism were indicators of a wholly different pathology. Assessing biographies, letters, memoirs of friends and family, and even Hemingway's FBI file, Farah has crafted a uniquely compelling narrative of Hemingway's illness. Throughout Hemingway's Brain, Farah explores the genetic influences, traumatic brain injuries, and neurological and psychological forces that resulted in what many have described as Hemingway's tortured final years. The paperback edition includes a new preface from the author and updates to the text reflecting the latest scientific advances in the study, prevention, and treatment of traumatic brain injuries.
