Published posthumously in 1964, A Moveable Feast remains one of Ernest
Hemingway's most beloved works. Since Hemingway's personal papers were
released in 1979, scholars have examined and debated the changes made to
the text before publication. Now this new special restored edition
presents the original manuscript as the author prepared it to be
published.
Featuring a personal foreword by Patrick Hemingway,
Ernest's sole surviving son, and an introduction by the editor and
grandson of the author, Sean 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. Also included are irreverent portraits of other luminaries, such
as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Madox Ford, and insightful
recollections of his own early experiments with his craft.
Sure
to excite critics and readers alike, the restored edition of A Moveable
Feast brilliantly evokes the exuberant mood of Paris after World War I
and the unbridled creativity and enthusiasm that Hemingway himself
experienced. In the world of letters it is a unique insight into a great
literary generation, by one of the best American writers of the
twentieth century.
