A review by dumbfellini
To Have and Have Not by Ernest Hemingway

3.0

This book is a mess. It's essentially one solid 50 page story with 100 pages of Key West sad sack (both rich and poor) atmosphere. If it had been just the story, or expanded to a full length novel where all of the characters could breathe more or at least give me a chance to empathize, if not connect with them, it might've been better.

I love Hemingway, but I wouldn't recommend this to someone.
