I spent my Saturday nights in New York, because those gleaming, dazzling parties of his were with me so vividly that I could still hear the music and the laughter, faith and incessant, from this garden, and the cars going up and own his drive, One night I did hear a material car there, and was it’s lights stop at his front steps. But I didn’t investigate. Probably it was some final guest who had been away at the ends of the earth and didn’t know that the party was over.

The Paris Wife

So anyway dearest followers, I have just finished The Paris Wife by Paula McLain and it was lovely and sad. It’s about Ernest Hemingway’s first wife, Hadley and their time together in Paris. And let me tell you it’s great when they’re in Paris because the place is swarming with writers, painters and socialites. It’s delicious. 

The biggest problem is there definitely was not enough of my boy Fitz and his girl Zelda. Ms. McLain should’ve just written the whole book about them. I love me some Fitzgeralds. 

Anyway, it was still very lovely and if you like 1920s Paris and its literary stars, I’d recommend it.
