A Moveable Feast (collected Works of Hemingway)
by I
About This Novel
Hemingway's 120th anniversary edition. One of Hemingway's most popular non-fiction works, a unique memory about Paris, a classic among classics. The translator Tang Yongkuan is a famous translator, and his translation is well-known. Containing precious black and white images of Paris in the 1920s and 1930s, the people, events, and objects described by Hemingway are classically reproduced in different visual texts. "If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris when you were young, then it will be with you wherever you go for the rest of your life, because Paris is a moveable feast." There are countless fictional or non-fictional works about Paris, and the "movable feast" written by Hemingway is perhaps the most lingering and lamentable among them. In the 1920s, Hemingway and his newlywed wife lived in Paris as journalists stationed in Europe. This book records the memory of this sojourn. However, this book was written more than thirty years later. In other words, the "scene" of the feast has long since disappeared. The author and readers are only tracing those past years in their memories. Those people and objects have been out of focus and deformed through the lens of time. All personal memories about Paris are blended into a common historical memory of Paris. As the saying goes, "Paris will never end."
