A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Between 1948 and 1961, Earnest Hemingway and A. E. Hotchner traveled together from New York to Paris to Spain, fished the waters off Cuba, hunted in Idaho, and ran with the bulls in Pamplona. And everywhere they talked. For 14 years, Hotchner and Hemingway shared a conversation. Hemingway reminisced about his childhood, recalled the Paris literary scene in the twenties, remembered his early years as a writer, and recounted the real events that lay behind his fiction. And Hotchner took it all down. His notes on the many occasions he spent with his friend Papa - in Venice and Rome, in Key West, on the Riviera, in Ketchum, Idaho, where Hemingway died by his own hand in 1961 - provide the material for this utterly truthful, profoundly compassionate bestselling memoir of the Nobel and Pulitzer Prize-winning author. What emerges is an extraordinary portrait of a great writer who had, and determined, the time of his life.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

For the last fourteen years of Hemingway's life A.E. Hotchner was a close friend. Together they fished off Cuba, traveled from New York to Paris to Spain to Venice and the Riviera, hunted in Idaho, ran with the bulls in Pamplona; and everywhere they drank, dined and talked. PAPA HEMINGWAY explores the last years of Hemingway's life as he began to write less and drink more. It also includes reminiscences of his childhood, of the Paris literary scene in the twenties, of the people and events that shaped his fiction. What emerges is an extraordinary portrait of a great writer and the time of his life.
