Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
Ernest Hemingway's "A Moveable Feast" allows the reader to experience life on the other side of the page, so to speak, the life of the authors. Recognizing the author as a person, as having gone through the human experience, is an important aspect of the reading experience. It removes the barrier between the reader and the author thus allowing a better communication between the text and the reader. The author no longer seems distant and extraordinary, so the reader is able to absorb the book on his own terms, as one discusses life with a respected friend. Hemingway's "A Moveable Feast" is particularly well-written, for Hemingway (as usual) does not talk down to the reader but rather includes the reader in his life as a matter of course. A truly remarkable bit of literature...
