A Moveable Feast

Published today 1964

Fiction is autobiographical.......EH is nosgtalgic, remorseful, boozy, bitter and unkind in his reflection on his 'Ex Pat' years in Paris. He breaks with Gertrude Stein ostensibly because of her homosexual behavior with Alice B. Toklas. Later Stein and Sherwood Anderson would muse publicly about Hem's copying their writing style. Stein's Jamesian influence and Anderson's continual publishing and writing support were substantial to EH development as a writer. This would add to the view that Hemingway always destroyed his relationships with those who would help him in life.

Sylvia Beach (owner of Shakespeare and Company bookstore) was a favorite.

Hem always regretted his leaving Hadley. Their years were the best for Him.
