Gertrude Stein angrily brooding in her apartment, and Fitzgerald passing out after one glass of wine.

Another all time favorite. If you are into the 20s and want a luscious, insiders view of the goings on, this books is a goldmine. Hemmingway talks about food and drink (lots of drink), about parties at Gertrude Stein's house, about taking up a collection to rescue T.S. Eliot from the drudgery of working at a bank, about his friendship with Fitzgerald. It is romantic and swoony and absolutely worth the read.
"We ate well and cheaply and we drank well and cheaply and slept well and warmly and loved each other."

Interesting that it was published later as an autobiography. He really dramatizes the life of a poor writer living in Paris. It's clear that his favorite marriage was his first marriage.
