To be honest, I don't think I've ever read a Hemmingway book that I can remember. (Maybe in school) If it isn't political non-fiction, 1984, Animal Farm, Atlas Shrugged, or Anthem, I simply don't care. I guess I'm just a Right Wing zealot. (Chuckle)

I don’t read fiction; life’s too short and way too interesting and I just don’t have time. I do have a set of Dickens in case I want fiction. Although I did read Matt Bracken’s trilogy which I highly recommend if you haven’t read it.

Have you read it, Darksheare?

Ernest Hemingway.. what to say about him.
He was actually a lunatic, and a lib.
His whole family are loons.
His writing was banal, droning, and insipid.
And he died a selfish cowardly death.
But, he knew what gunpowder tasted like for a brief second.
Now there’s a writer worth idolising!
Right?
Hemingway wrote his last book, The Old Man and the Sea, while in Cuba in the 1950’s.
That should tell you alot about him.
He’s very popular among lefties for some reason.
I guess when you have a character talking to his hand while out in a boat they love it.
