Ah, thanks for clearing that up. Like the parent, I was confused why people weren't mentioning Hemingway. Sadly, I only started reading his books well into my 20's - I wish I had ream them earlier. His books are addictive, you read one, you want to read them all.
As I read his works, I often wondered if he just lived in more interesting times or did he himself make life so interesting?
- BasDirks 15y agoSome works are to be read AFTER your teenage years. One can only read a book for the first time once. Also, some of Hemingway's later works are often described as "Hemingway trying to write like Hemingway", and I have to agree. Hemingway DID make his own life very interesting, but he was also known to make it SEEM more interesting from time to time. But hey, he was ("one hell of a") a writer.
