Today, Highschools-Colleges-Universities, let’s talk about literature, with a great writer and journalist: Ernest Hemingway (July 21, 1899, Illinois – July 2, 1961, Idaho). Hemingway wrote most of his work between the 1920s and the 1950s. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. His works are considered as classics of American literature.

In Paris, Hemingway met writers, painters, artists such as Gertrude Stein, James Joyce, Ezra Pound, Pablo Picasso, Joan Miró, Juan Gris, James Joyce.
