Ernest and Hadley circa 1920
For those of you around the Boston area – here is some good news – Author Paula McClain whose book The Paris Wife recently came out will be at the JKK Library talking about her book about Ernest Hemingway’s first wife, Hadley Richardson. Ms. McClain is scheduled to speak at the JFK Forum on March 23rd from 5:30 – 7:00 PM. This is a fantastic venue to hear a discussion. The last one I attended – Caroline Moorehead and her book about yet another Hemingway wife, Martha Gellhorn, was well worth the visit.
There was an article on the same book, The Paris Wife, in the NY Times entitled A First Wife Can Be So Stolid and Clueless and Plain and Pregnant. Here is a new story that came out today on this same topic on NPR.
