- Tests a new online editing tool, the Hemingway app, purported to help those aspiring to write great literature in the vein of Hemingway s iconic style. Silvis discovers that random paragraphs from For Whom the Bell Tolls are appraised as poorly written by the app, proving just how deluded millions of Hemingway readers have been over the years.
