- Annotation
- Including all known surviving letters from June 1934 through June 1936, this is the sixth volume of an estimated seventeen volume series of Hemingway's correspondence. On a personal level, the letters show his passion for fishing, dedication to writing, status of relationships with old and new friends, and growing interest in politics. Personally, they document the completion and publication of his creative nonfiction book Green Hills of Africa, contributions to Esquire magazine, and work on "The Short Happy Life of Francis Macomber" and "The Snows of Kilimanjaro." Editorial introductions survey the scope of Hemingway's correspondence and letter-writing habits and trace the progression of his literary career and expertise in sport fishing, noting that Hemingway's "fishing output during this period is as prolific as his writing." Features a detailed chronology of the covered years and maps. Meticulous endnotes annotate the 366 letters, cables, and postcards, identifying references to people, places, events, and works. Includes appendix of newly discovered letters (1918-1934) appearing after publication of previous volumes. Extensive index.
