Presents the author's memories of his life as an unknown writer living in Paris in the 1920s. Looking back at his younger self, and at the other writers who shared Paris with him - like James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein - this title recalls the time when, poor, happy and writing in cafes, he discovered his vocation. Featuring a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway, Ernest's sole surviving son, and an introduction by the editor and grandson of the author, Seán Hemingway, this new edition also includes a number of unfinished, never-before-published Paris sketches revealing experiences that Hemingway had with his son Jack and his first wife, Hadley.
