Book-of-the-Month Club is identified on both jacket flaps. Jacket shows general wear including some creases, tears and fraying edges. It has since been covered in plastic. Interior is almost as new, with yellowed pages and a small name written in pen on FFEP. Pages clean, binding is tight.
Synopsis
A Moveable Feast is a set of memoirs by American author Ernest Hemingway about his years in Paris as part of the American expatriate circle of writers in the 1920s. In addition to painting a picture of Hemingway's time as a struggling young writer, the book also sketches the story of Hemingway and his first wife, Hadley. Published after his death, A Moveable Feast is considered by many to contain some of his best writing.
