A feminine look at the difficult life of Ernest Hemingway Ernest.
The figure of this American writer invariably becomes the subject of controversy, and already during his lifetime her was surrounded by myths and legends (the author of which he often visited).
This book is the first biography of Hemingway, written by a woman. Unlike other biographers, male colleagues, Mary Dirborn, other aspects of the dad’s life were interested in, who, from her point of view, laid out a deep imprint on his work - charisma (inherited from his mother), relations with women and men and even such delicate issues, As a writer’s desire for experiments with gender roles and his obsession with androgynia. In the era of postmodernism, the Americans suddenly realized that the heroes to whom they worshiped were not at all like a legend created around them.
Mary Dirborn does not seek to once again offer the reader a glossy myth - or destroy it, as it happened, other biographers. By the beginning of work on the biography of Hemingway, she was already an experienced author, and her pen belonged to the biography of large writers. Mary Dirborn looks at the Hemingeevsky myth with a sober and in a way curious look and, based on unique written sources (including recently opened archives), scrupulously separates the truth from fiction, primarily in order to understand Hemingway"s tragedy, since the death of the writer has become Huge loss for the American - and world - culture.
Literally following Hemingway on the heels, carefully analyzing evidence - personal correspondence of a prose writer with loved ones and friends, memories of contemporaries, official documents and artistic works - Mary Dirborn reveals to the reader, step by step in what conditions and life circumstances he matured the literary Hemingway"s talent, how he reached the climax of glory, how he came to moral decomposition and how his mental illness overtook, which pushed the writer to the fatal step
