Ernest emigrerar som 18-åring till Amerika. Som många andra har han drömmar om att bli rik och få ett bättre liv. Han får ett jobb på skyskraporna och tjänar grova pengar. Med flit och sparsamhet syns hans drömmar gå i uppfyllelse. Men över en natt blir han ruinerad i börskraschen på Wall street 1929.
”Den viktigaste talangen för en begåvad författare är en inbyggd, stötsäker, skitdetektor.” – Ernest HemingwayEn av det tjugonde århundradets mest inflytelserika litterära ikoner avslöjar mer av sig själv än någonsin tidigare i denna omfattande samling samtal från hela hans karriär. Här talar Hemingway ur hjärtat om kärlek, krig, berömmelse, fiske och om den lidelsefulla disciplin som drev hans skrivande framåt. Samtalen ger en fascinerande inblick i det liv och de verk som har behållit sitt grepp och sitt inflytande över generationer bokälskare, drömmare och äventyrare.”Ernest … har en gnista av genialitet i sig som gör det möjligt för honom att klara av extraordinära saker med lätthet.” – F. SCOTT FITZGERALD”En av de modigaste och bästa, med de hårdaste principer, den allra strängaste utövaren av författarhantverket, orubblig i sin hängivenhet till arbetet … Till de få som kände honom väl var han en nästan lika bra människa som böckerna han skrev. Han är inte död; ännu inte födda unga män och kvinnor med författardrömmar kommer att vederlägga att det ordet används om honom.” – WILLIAM FAULKNER”Den mest enastående författaren sedan Shakespeare gick ur tiden … Alltid farlig. Alltid där med den där högern redo. Äkta vara.” – JOHN O’HARA”Han åstadkom det som få konstnärer i vår tid, eller någon tid, lyckats med: den nästintill omöjliga bedriften att förkroppsliga sitt verks betydelse – som människa, i åsynen av världen och i den tid han levde i.” – TENNESEE WILLIAMS RÖSTER OM BOKEN:"Jag har alltid betraktat författare som pratar, eller ännu värre skriver, om sitt eget skrivande och läsande med skepsis. Det är tröttsamt med författare som har pretentionen att övertyga omgivningen om sin bildning. Det är därför jag med viss tveksamhet närmar mig Ernest Hemingway - den sista intervjun och andra konversationer. Fyra intervjuer senare, två från 1954 och två från 1958, vill jag tacka Sjösala förlag och översättaren Daniel Martinez för läsfesten." - ÅSA LINDERBORG, AFTONBLADET KULTUR
Excerpt from The Architectural Record; April, 1902, Vol. 11: The Works of Ernest Flagg Omitting for a moment the personal factor, the explanation of both the initial opportunity and the subsequent success is to be found in the fact that Mr. Flagg brought to his task a very thorough preparation obtained at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. Mr. Flagg was fortunate in that he brought that particular train ing to this country at that particular moment, thus joining a small coterie of architects possessed of a professional equipment Similar to his own - men of the School whose work in the beginning of the Nineties was coming into style, that is coming to possess high commercial value.
