Book Reviews of Coffee with Hemingway (Coffee with...Series)
Book Review: Talking With Hemingway
Summary: 5 Stars
Kirk Curnutt takes an interesting approach- what would it be like to sit down and discuss a variety of topics with Papa, that hard-drinking, carousing, womanizing lover of life and master of 20th Century literature, Ernest Hemingway? The author takes known facts about Hemingway, his tastes, his likes and dislikes, his personality and views on life- and crafts interesting "dialogues" with the man. The approach is unique- and fun. You get to sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee with the man who many consider one of the greatest writers in American literature and decide for yourself if you enjoy talking with him or not...hearing his views on a wide range of subjects...his prejudices, his weaknesses, his strengths....
"Coffee with Hemingway" is simply a refreshing light read for those who already have nearly every other book about the man- and want something different. It works well and should please Hemingway fans of all stripes...

Summary of Coffee with Hemingway (Coffee with...Series)
“Go take a flying leap if you came here to flatter me.? It?s easy to imagine Hemingway at his desk, reacting with his fabled aggression when interrupted for advice—as he does here. Known for his globetrotting; passion for bullfighting, fishing, and hunting; fascination with war; and feuds with rivals like Gertrude Stein, he set the 20th-century template for the artist as an adventurer and man of action. Kirk Curnutt, a professor and member of the board of directors of the Ernest Hemingway Society, and multi-award-winning author John Updike arrange a mesmerizing meeting with this prickly American genius.
