Hemingway's Daughter by Christine M. Whitehead
5.0

"Happiness in intelligent people is the rarest thing I know."

The best short thing that I can describe the Hemingway's Daughter by Christine M. Whitehead is a beautiful fictional biography during WWII in USA.

Hemingway had three sons but ached for a daughter. This is Finn Hemingway's story, fictional daughter of Ernest and Hadley Hemingway.
This is Flea s story (only her father called), her friends, relationships, career, and horses. When Finn was born, her father was at age 26. They spend vacations together and their relationship was very special even when he had drinking problems and many wives.

"During the war, women had a place, but not anymore."

Flea wanted to be a trial lawyer. But, when men came back from war, this was not an easy goal. This story was about a woman, tried hard in harsh times and fought with Hemingways curse that ends badly in love.

I really enjoyed reading this very emotional story, beautifully written with interesting characters. I always loved Ernest Hemingway's books and this story from this point of view was very compelling. Even though this was a fictional book, I really liked Ernest Hemingway's character and his passion for animals.

"You know you’re in love when you can’t fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams."

Many thanks to BookBuzz.net and NetGalley for giving me the chance to read Hemingway's Daughter by Christine M. Whitehead, I have given my honest review.
