"My years with the Hemingways "

Autor: Hemingway, Valerie

In name a personal secretary to Ernest Hemingway, but in reality his confidante, Valerie Danby-Smith literally came of age in the company ot one ot the great literary lions ot the twentieth century. She traveled witli Hemingway and his wife Mary through Spain and France and lived with them during tlie tumultuous final months in Cuba. Five years after his death, Valerie became a Hemingway herself when she married the writer`s estranged son Gregory. Now she tells the story ot the incredible years

she spent with this extravagantly talented, tragically doomed tamily.

From lunches with Orson Welles to midnight serenades by mysterious troubadours, trom a rooftop encounter with Castro to numbing hospital vigils, Valerie Hemingway played an indispensable role in the lives ot two generations ot Hemingways. This memoir, by turns luminous, enthralling, and devastating, is the account ot what she enjoyed and what she endured during her astonishing years ot living as a Hemingway.
