The Importance of Not Being Ernest: My Life with the Uninvited Hemingway
商品資訊
商品簡介
An
Ernest Hemingway Biography Like No
Other
By a series of
coincidences, Mark Kurlansky's life has always been intertwined with Ernest
Hemingway's legend, starting with being in Idaho the day of Hemingway's
death. The Importance of Not Being
Ernest explores the intersections between Hemingway's and
Kurlansky's lives, resulting in creative accounts of two great writing
careers.
Travel the world with
Mark Kurlansky and Ernest Hemingway. In The
Importance of Not Being Ernest, Kurlansky details his ten years in
Paris and his time as a journalist in Spain--both cities important to
Hemingway's life, writing, and legend. He also touches on his interludes in the
Hemingway haunts of Key West, Havana, and Chicago and the people he met
there--those who have also fallen under the Hemingway spell, including a Vietnam
Veteran suffering from the same syndrome the author did, two winners of the Key
West Hemingway look-alike contest, and the man in Idaho who took Hemingway
hunting and fishing.
Explore Hemingway's life
and legend through the eyes of a fellow author and
journalist. The New York Times best-selling
author of Salt, Mark Kurlansky now turns his
historical eye to the life of Ernest Hemingway. Sometimes funny, sometimes
sad, The Importance of Not Being
Ernest shows the huge shadow Hemingway
cast.
In this great gift for writers, find:
- Entertaining
and illuminative stories - Little-known facts about
Hemingway's life - Anecdotes about those who suffer what the
Kurlansky calls "hemitis"
Readers
of biographies and memoirs about authors such as Haruki
Murakami's What I Talk About When I Talk About
Running, John Steinbeck's Travels with Charley in
Search of America, and Brian Doyle's One Long
River of Song will love The Importance of
Not Being Ernest.
