castrologico 's review for:
A Moveable Feast
by Ernest Hemingway
“When spring came, even the false spring, there were no problems except where to be happiest. The only thing that could spoil a day was people and if you could keep from making engagements, each day had no limits. People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.”
I'll be honest: while this is extremely well-written, particularly when it comes to Hem's descriptive abilities, I expected more. Maybe because I expected a plot, a narrative, and got a series of stories with little output or connection between them. Other than a couple of them, they could all be scrambled into a different outline without loss of quality. This made me struggle to get going during the first half, as I got to realise I was reading a collection of stories.
