A Moveable Feast
by Ernest Hemingway
Hemingway's memories of his life as an unknown writer living in
Paris in the twenties are deeply personal, warmly affectionate, and
full of wit. Looking back not only at his own much younger self, but
also at the other writers who shared Paris with him - James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald - he recalls the time
when, poor, happy, and writing in cafes, he discovered his vocation. Written during the last years of Hemingway's life, his memoir is a
lively and powerful reflection of his genius that scintillates with the romance of the city.
