About this Book
A richly illustrated collection of stores about Ernest Hemingway and
his love affair with Cuba as narrated by his niece Hilary Hemingway,
featuring unpublished photographs and never before seen material.
HEMINGWAY IN CUBA is at once a literary journey for the armchair traveler
and a rich companion guide for Hemingway aficionados touring Papa’s
haunts in Cuba and in neighboring Bimini and Key West. Hilary gives
new insight into her uncle’s life in Cuba, relating tales of his renowned
passion for big game fish, the women who competed for his affection,
and the people who came to inhabit stories such To Have & Have
Not, Islands in the Stream.
In 2002, the Cuban government granted permission to a select group
of scholars to examine a cache of Hemingway’s papers untouched since
his death in 1961. Hemingway In Cuba will feature revelations from
the never before seen letters, marginalia, and other documents uncovered
in the restoration effort at Finca Vigia, Hemingway’s home in Cuba.
