Passion for Writing

Going from place to place was just the way Ernest Hemingway was. He had been all over the world to places like: Spain, Paris, Africa, and Cuba. Cuba is also one of the places that is present in his book To Have and Have Not. To Have and Have Not was published in 1937. Ernest based much of this book from the time and experiences he had when he was in Florida and Cuba. It was …

…indeed as fascinating as any in his stories. On one level, he was a legendary adventurer who enjoyed his flamboyant lifestyle and celebrity status. But deep inside lived a disciplined author who worked tirelessly in pursuit of literary perfection. His success in both living and writing is reflected in the fact that Hemingway is a hero to both intellectuals and rebels alike; the passions of the man are only equaled by those in his writing.
