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 special restored edition
presents the original manuscript as the author intended 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 literary
luminaries, such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ford Maddox Ford, and insightful
recollections of Hemingway’s 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.
