About This Item
Signed, First Edition, As New Condition
Book is in great, as new condition with the exception of its spine; there is separation between the binding and spine when book is opened, all else fine.
Dust jacket in pristine condition and protected in Mylar.
Signed by the author, Mary V. Dearborn on the title page; "Mary V. Dearborn June 20, 2017"
First edition print.
The first full biography of Ernest Hemingway in more than fifteen years; the first to draw upon a wide array of never-before-used material; the first written by a woman, from the widely acclaimed biographer of Norman Mailer, Peggy Guggenheim, Henry Miller, and Louise Bryant.
A revelatory look into the life and work of Ernest Hemingway, considered in his time to be the greatest living American novelist and short-story writer, winner of the 1953 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction and the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. Mary Dearborn's new biography gives the richest and most nuanced portrait to date of this complex, enigmatically unique American artist, whose same uncontrollable demons that inspired and drove him throughout his life undid him at the end, and whose seven novels and six-short story collections informed--and are still informing--fiction writing generations after his death.
