I just finished the restored edition of A Moveable Feast: The Restored Edition, which was fascinating as much for what it didn't say as for what it did. Now I'm eager to read The Paris WifePaula McLain, which, although fictional, may answer some of the questions that Hemingway's memoir leaves you pondering.

Ivan I also thoroughly enjoyed Shakespeare and Company by Sylvia Beach Shakespeare and Company by Sylvia Beach - it captures the same period of time in Paris and lots of the same characters (people).

Sounds great, Ivan! It's now on my TBR list. How I wish I had taken the time to visit the bookstore when I was in Paris a few years ago! I did have lunch at Les Deux Magots, where those 20s writers often dined and drank.

Jeffrey Walker (jkwalkerauthor) Anyone else read the latest edition of Ernest Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway A Farewell to Arms, the one edited by a Hemingway grandson that includes as an appendix the two dozen-odd endings that Papa H tried out, before settling on the one that made Bradley Cooper throw it out the window in "Silver Linings Playbook"?
