- The Man Who Wasn t There: A Life of Ernest Hemingway
- Author/Creator
- Richard Bradford
- Annotation
- Revisionist biography aimed at exposing the narcissistic and egomaniacal man behind the author s public persona. Bradford draws largely on unpublished correspondence to support his thesis that Hemingway s mendacious nature and inability to differentiate reality from fantasy were well rooted by adolescence and out of control by the end of his life. Dismisses Hemingway s modernist aesthetic, characterizing his fiction as a perversely autobiographical blend of falsehoods and self-delusions. Includes more than a dozen black-and-white photographs, bibliography, and index.
