First printing of Hemingway's posthumously published memoir of 1920s Paris.
Price: $400.00
"There is never any ending to Paris and the memory of each person who has lived in it differs from that of any other. We always returned to it no matter who we were or how it was changed or with what difficulties, or ease, it could be reached. Paris was always worth it and you received return for whatever you brought to it. But this is how Paris was in the early days when we were very poor and very happy."
This book offers a firsthand account of the Lost Generation struggling to find new artistic vision after the devastation of World War I, featuring scenes with Gertrude Stein, John Dos Passos, Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald, James Joyce, Ezra Pound, Sylvia Beach, and more.
