Publisher Description

Ernest Hemingway’s classic memoir of Paris in the 1920s, now available in a restored edition, includes the original manuscript along with insightful recollections and unfinished sketches.

Published posthumously in 1964, A Moveable Feast remains one of Ernest Hemingway’s most enduring works. Since Hemingway’s personal papers were released in 1979, scholars have examined the changes made to the text before publication. Now, this 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 grandson of the author, Seán Hemingway, editor of this edition, the book 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 literary luminaries, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Maddox Ford, and insightful recollections of Hemingway’s own early experiments with his craft.

Widely celebrated and debated by critics and readers everywhere, 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.

"I really admire Hemingway's ability to tell it how it is without giving us pages of description. The stories come across as more real, more true to life even though they took place almost a century ago. Much of what was true then is true now, especially when it comes down to the character of a person. I don't think that the additions to the end of this particular version are of any special worth other than to show he was a writer dedicated to perfecting his craft- don't we know this already? I also think that, had I not known of some of the characters and the general life of Hemingway in Paris, this would have been confusing. It means more knowing the background of his story, whether its fictionalised or not. That said, I enjoyed the book thoroughly and enjoyed the view of 1920's Paris it provided me."

Quotes

  • “Gives us an opportunity to meet Hemingway less as the controlled craftsman that he long pretended to be than as the embittered, frightened, sharp-eyed avoider of feelings who captured them unerringly…[an] elegiac testimony of a writer sensitive to time and change, to false starts and to false people, most especially himself.” 

    — Wall Street Journal
  • “Each chapter is short and vignette-like, comical, bitchy and warm. They are best read a few at a time, so as to get into the flow of Hemingway’s surprising sentences, but not to be overwhelmed by the high concentration of egos gathered together on one page.” 

    — Observer (London)
  • “It is a short, perfect book. Hemingway wrote it when he was a successful man, about the experience of being a young man, who was not yet successful, but who was writing and happy and in love with his wife. It is very personal but in the most generous way.” 

    — Independent (London)

    " I really liked this book. Fun sketches from his time in Paris in the 1920s, which include anecdotes involving some other prominent literary figures in Hemingway's social circles (Gertrude Stein, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound). A must-read for Paris travelers who want to get a feel for the city and its English-speaking cultural history. "

    " I enjoyed it so much more than o thought possible. I enjoyed his caricatures of friends and acquaintances, his romantic eye towards Paris, his description of writing and working as a writer. He did not disappoint in Hemingway-can't/won't-write-women. "

    " The more I read about Hemingway, the more fascinated I become. I suppose that's one thing I can thank the Paris wife for. Was difficult for me to get into at first as I am not used to his style of writing. But I admire him for the simplicity of his prose, which in no way diminished his works. Paris in the 1920's, Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound. These are just some of the reasons to read A Moveable feast. Somehow feels like you can almost know the great writers of that time just by reading this "

    " A great description of 1920s Paris by the great Hemingway. Paris comes to live in this book through Hemingway's unique style of simplicity and wit, involving the meeting of many familiar personages including Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, Ford Madox Ford, and the great Fitzgerald. I enjoyed this book very much, being the fourth Hemingway novel I've read this year. "
