- Annotation
- Calls for an inter-American perspective in the study of Hemingway s Cuban fiction in which the author s relationship with Cuba is one of mutual and reciprocal influence. Surveys the scholarship since 1980, suggesting potential intercultural avenues for studying both Hemingway s Cuban writings and life. McClintock opens with an extrinsic cross-country comparison of the content and style of To Have and Have Not to Enrique Serpa s contemporary novel on the same subject Contrabando (1938), followed by an intrinsic inter-American analysis of To Have and Have Not invoking Mary Cruz s historical study of Hemingway s relations with the Gulf Stream. Concludes that Hemingway s work is vital to inter-American literary study, and best understood in its cultural contexts.
