"If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, than wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast". Hemingway’s memories of his life as an unknown writer living in Paris in the 1920s are deeply personal, warmly affectionate and full of wit. Looking back not only at his own much younger self, but also at other writers who shared Paris with him - literary "stars" like James Joyce, Wyndham Lewis, Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein - he recalls the times when, poor, happy and writing in cafes, he discovered his vocation. A Moveable Feast was written during the last years of Hemingway’s life, and is a lively and powerful reflection of his genius that scintillates with the romance of the city. "The Paris Sketches are absolutely controlled, far enough removed in time so that the scenes and characters are observed in tranquillity, and yet with astonishing immediacy - his remarkable gift - so that many have the hard brilliance of his best fiction".
