The Paris Wife by Paula McLainRead about another entry on the list.
Paula McLain tackles the literary giant Ernest Hemingway through the eyes of his first wife, Hadley, in this 2012 novel. Though Hadley can seem boring compared to some of the people that populate Hemingway’s life, her status amongst the literati makes her a keen observer of Hemingway’s vibrant time in Paris.
The Paris Wife is among Nicole Hill's five books that are basically country and western songs and Wai Chee Dimock's five top books on Hemingway in Paris; it made Kirkus Reviews list of the best historical fiction titles of 2011.
