Ernest Hemingway’s posthumous memoir drifts through 1920s Paris—cafés, cheap wine, and the young writer’s circle of Stein, Joyce, Pound, and the Fitzgeralds—capturing the making of a style as much as the memory of a place. First published in 1964 and later issued in a “restored” edition, it’s both love letter and ledger: how work, marriage, and the Lost Generation’s friendships were forged at street level.
