That Summer in Paris: Memories of Tangled Friendships with Hemingway, Fitzgerald, and Some Others

Morley Callaghan

0/5 ( ratings)

"That Summer in Paris" was the fabulous summer of 1929, when the literary capital of the United States virtually moved to the Left Bank. Morely Callaghan arrived in Paris to share the felicities of the literary life with his friends Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott Fitzgerald, both of whom had helped launch him on his career as an author.

"That Summer in Paris" recaptures the conviviality of long afternoons at sidewalk cafes and friendly boxing bouts at the American Gym, including the author's famous match with Hemingway --- with Fitzgerald as timekeeper --- that resulted finally in the estrangement of all three friends.

In addition to the vivid portraits of Hemingway and Fitzgerald, "That Summer in Paris" presents charming vignettes of the great and near-great: James Joyce, Sinclair Lewis, Sherwood Anderson, Ford Madox Ford, Sylvia Beach, Maxwell Perkins and many others.
