Michael Reynolds recreates the milieu that forged one of America's greatest and most influential writers. He reveals the fraught foundations of Hemingway's persona: his father's self-destructive battle with depression and his mother's fierce independence and spiritualism. He brings Hemingway through World War I, where he was frustrated by being too far away from the action and glory, despite his being wounded and nursed to health by Agnes Von Kurowsky - the older woman with whom he fell terribly in love.

The 1920s in Paris are the pivotal years in Hemingway's apprenticeship as a writer, whether sitting in cafes or at the feet of Gertrude Stein.

These are also the years of Hemingway's first marriage to Hadley Richardson, the birth of his first son, and his discovery of the bullfights at Pamplona.

El libro está escrito en primera persona, es la voz siempre del propio poeta la que conversa con él mismo. La voz del narrador debería ser la de un hombre de más-menos 40 años. Deberá ser una voz varonil, profunda, grave. Nunca que lea en tono de declamación, o recitando, debe ser un poco cómo hablaba el poeta. Aquí dejo un video en el que se escucha la voz de Sabines cuándo leyó para su disco Voz Viva de la UNAM. y algo así deberá de ser la voz del narrador.

Henry Miller was one of the most distinctive voices in twentieth-century literature. Better known in Europe than in his native America for most of this career, he achieved international success and celebrity during the 1960s when his banned "Paris" books - beginning with Tropic of Cancer - were published here and judged by the Supreme Court not to be obscene. Until then he had toiled in relative obscurity and poverty.

Les morts sont des invisibles, ils ne sont pas des absents. Dehors, il fait 5 °C, le temps est gris et venteux. Dans un instant, le prêtre va célébrer la messe d'enterrement de maman.
