Title: Bashing Hemingway Off-Broadway: John de Groot s Papa
Author/Creator: Richard Allan Davison
Publication Details: North Dakota Quarterly, Vol.64(3), pp.27-35
Annotation: Commentary on the play, which propagates all of Hemingway s negative qualities. Investigates reasons behind de Groot s distorted view of the author by comparing this 1996 version with his earlier, and more restrained Papa: A Play Based on the Legendary Lives of Ernest Hemingway (1989). Ends with a request for a play that explores why Hemingway was a major writer and celebrates the man and his art.
