... but in Paris, at least, he (Hemingway) found something real and deep in another mythic setting, though it would not be lasting ... we ate well and cheaply and drank well and cheaply and slept well and warm together and loved each other ... that is the sort of happiness you should not tinker with but nearly everyone you knew tried to adjust it ...


A superb story about Hemingway in today's NY Times, by Timothy Egan:

Haunted by Hemingway

... just when you think you can quit him, hate him, make fun of him, Hemingway continues to fascinate ...
