Paris in the 1920's A Marvelous Time to Experience

If you have not yet read Hemingway's A Moveable Feast, I would highly recommend doing so.  Especially, if you are looking to escape into another time and watch the world through the eyes of a romantic.

A romantic, not only in the sensual, but in the sense of discovery and in experiencing the depth and breadth of every interlude, intake of the landscape, complexity of emotion, and the wonderful tastes of  French food and liquor! 

 How this man gives you the taste of an aperitif` is amazing!

Paris, being what it was in the 1920's was an amazing place to live, dream, and aspire. Post war,  it took the world by storm with its avant garde approach to all things expressionist.  Music, Art, Thought... It forever changed the landscape of our minds and hearts, and we can attribute much of that to the Ex-Patriot's (Fitzgerald, Stein, Picasso...) whom made Paris their home during those years.

In this autobiography, you will meet those characters for what they were, their hopes, dreams, insecurities, passions.  You will begin to understand why their work was so important, and now so revered and you will be inspired to make more of yourself. 

  A  note about his original papers...

After his death in Cuba (he lived there with wife, Mary) 

Ernest Hemingway's writings...thousands of pages of original works, notes, and letters,  were confiscated by Fidel Castro.

 Mary begged for the American governments help and  JFK intervened. He was able to negotiate the return of all of Hemingways work, to Mary. 

As a Thank You to JFK, Mary Hemingway willed ALL of the works to the JFK public library; which are now available to all of us, in their original form.

 Next time in Boston, be sure to put this on your list of interesting things to see...

Remember, live the good life...La Dolce Vita oxoxox
