april_does_feral_sometimes 's review for:
A Moveable Feast
by Ernest Hemingway
The next time I go to the store, I'm buying a journal. Let's see, ummmm. "Today. I woke up. Dressed. Made breakfast. Exercised. Turned on TV. Watched it for three hours, then turned it down for background noise. Did laundry. Picked up iPad. Read ebook. Made lunch. Petted the neighbor's cat"
Hmmmm. My journal doesn't quite have the punch of Ernest Hemingway's daily record of his life in Paris, 'A Moveable Feast'. I think EH is safe from me poaching his audience.
'Chapter 2. Miss Stein instructs'. --that's Gertrude Stein, famous writer, talked with EH about how to write and about different books.
'Chapter 9. Ford Madox Ford and the Devil's Disciple'. --a cafe encounter where EH endures a conversation with this famous writer whom he dislikes.
'Chapter 11. Ezra Pound and the Measuring Worm' --Pound, the famous poet, wanted to learn to box. EH taught him a few lessons.
'Chapter 17. Scott Fitzgerald' --EH goes on a road trip with Fitzgerald.
EH is warm, outgoing and charismatic in these pages. He notices everything important and writes so lively, I forgot this has all passed into history. : ( He knows EVERYBODY who was famous in Paris. His walks often took him to salons, studios, cafes and homes which we only know by watching PBS, but his descriptions have the added bite of personal reflection and succinct observations.
Wow.
