Hemingway always said he wrote letters only so that he'd get them back. This selection of his correspondence, however, reveals him to be a master of the form.

Publisher Notes
This first collection of Hemingway's personal correspondence reveals his multidimensional character, views on contemporaneous literary topics, and irrepressible opinions about friends, work, women, soldiers, politicians, and himself.
Media Reviews
"He wrote strange and sometimes wonderful letters....[M]ost of them come pouring out exuberantly, or furiously, or maliciously, or humorously, the stuff of his own wide gaudy wonderful world....[T]he letters are captivating because we can never be sure whether he is telling the truth, or whether he is being seduced by his imagination into believing the legends he created for himself."
