A Moveable Feast: The Restored Edition
by Ernest Hemingway
I wasn't expecting to like this book, since I had read a little of 'The Old Man and the Sea' in high school and could barely get through it. So, I was pleasantly surprised that I loved 'A Moveable Feast.' It helps that Hemingway is in "gossip queen" mode in this book (to quote a friend), and dishing all kinds of dirt on other famous authors, notably F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Madox Ford, and that he devotes long passages in the memoir to beautiful, evocative descriptions of life in Paris. It's interesting to read both the original edition and this restored edition, which includes a really interesting chapter showing all of Hemingway's rewrites of the introduction, and several chapters omitted from the first publication.
