Ernest Hemingway was a mythic figure of overt masculinity and vibrant literary genius. He lived life on an epic scale, presenting to the world a character as compelling as the fiction he created. But behind it all lurked an insecure, troubled man. In this immensely powerful and revealing study, Kenneth S. Lynn explores the many tragic facets that both nurtured Hemingway's work and eroded his life. Masterfully written, Hemingway brings to life the writer whose desperate struggle to exorcise his demons produced some of the greatest American fiction of this century.

While devoting a lot of time to Hemingway's family, especially his mother and offering a lot of psychological speculation, the real strength of thie book is how chronologically it follows his works, their context, and those other authors and publishers who made them possible. The book also clearly explains Hemingwqy's willingness to invent his own biography, with help from the press as he moved through life. An excellent contribution to American literary history. ( )
