I love this book, not so much for the writing, I don't think it's the best example of his writing, but for the portrait of a specific time at a specific place. I re-read this last year and then read Gertrude Stein's Autobiography of Alice T., they both had very strong views of the other!Kim Allen-Niesenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10225901212884028672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-82670652824443857022010-02-14T08:27:49.039-06:002010-02-14T08:27:49.039-06:00I loved A Moveable Feast but I also love Hemingway...I loved A Moveable Feast but I also love Hemingway as well as the literary world of Paris at that time.

I've read a few of Hemingway's novels and a couple by FSF, but it's been a long time. Hope that's enough to help me appreciate A Moveable Feast.
