Tells the story of Hemingways tumultuous marriage to his third wife set against the backdrop of the Great Depression in Key West, the first revolution in Cuba, the Spanish civil war, World War II, and the war in China. It is as much about their activities as intelligence agents and the great political and economic events of the period as it is about the two protagonists. . Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

So, this is somewhat trashy, but it is an entertaining read and it will likely make you want to read some more Ernest Hemingway and perhaps discover Martha Gellhorn's works as well, or perhaps one of the serious biographies such as Michael S. Reynolds' Hemingway: The 1930s through the Final Years or Caroline Moorehead's Gellhorn: A Twentieth-Century Life. So that still earns Tuccille's book a plus vote in my view. Just be sure to take some of the stories with a pinch of salt.
p.s. Tuccille has also written an earlier Hemingway biographical fiction called A Portrait of Hemingway as a Young Man: Romping Through Paris in the 1920s. ( )
