Author/Creator: David D. Anderson
Publication Details: Saul Bellow Journal, Vol.8(2), pp.59-75
Annotation: Broad overview of Hemingway s experiences in Africa, pointing out parallels between such works as Safari and Green Hills of Africa and Bellow s Henderson the Rain King (1959). Anderson writes: Hemingway s reality, although he would deny it, is of the memory, transmuted by talent and imagination, into myth, the point at which Bellow s African reality, begins and ends.
