Published posthumously in 1964, A Moveable Feast remains one of Ernest Hemingway's most beloved works. It is his classic memoir of Paris in the 1920s, filled with irreverent portraits of other expatriate luminaries such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Gertrude Stein; tender memories of his first wife, Hadley; and insightful recollections of his own early experiments with his craft. It is a literary feast, brilliantly evoking the exuberant mood of Paris after World War I and the youthful spirit, unbridled creativity, and unquenchable enthusiasm that Hemingway himself epitomized.

Great additions to a classic submitted by A2AE on July 23, 2018, 1:27pm I really enjoy the forward and additional stories in this edition. Even though Hemingway saw them as incomplete, it was a delight to get inside his head and his experience in Paris. Having recently read The Paris Wife (a must-read!), it was interesting to more about Hadley and the Fitzgeralds.
