Published for the first time as Ernest Hemingway intended,
one of the great writer's most enduring works: his classic
memoir of Paris in the 1920s 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, 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.
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 unquenchable enthusiasm that Hemingway
himself epitomized.
