About this product
Product Information
When Ernest Hemingway committed suicide in 1961 he left four unfinished works - A Moveable Feast, Islands in the Stream, The Garden of Eden, and an untitled work on his travels in Africa. The edited versions which have come down to readers and scholars of Hemingway appear as distinct, disjointed texts which fit oddly into his oeuvre. Through extensive literary detective work Burwell has uncovered substantial evidence which finds that Hemingway in fact designed the three published works as a trilogy, what she terms 'his own Portrait of the Artist'. She combines biographical and textual analysis to create a compelling document of a period of Hemingway's life which biographers have slenderly covered. This work will ensure that these little known works be critically re-appraised, and will certainly catalyse discussion among Hemingway's readers.

'Hemingway critics from now on will ignore her work at their peril, for it is one of those that will change the direction of Hemingway scholarship and that's no mean accomplishment.' Paul Smith, ‘Hemingway critics from now on will ignore her work at their peril, for it is one of those that will change the direction of Hemingway scholarship and that’s no mean accomplishment.’Paul Smith, 'The sense of discovery in her book … should alone make this book one of the most sought-after of recent Hemingway texts.' Mark Spilka, ‘This is a masterpiece. She now enters the ranks of the important Hemingway scholars. All of them will have to reckon with her book, and they will be citing it and arguing over it for years to come.’Robert Scholes, 'Hemingway critics from now on will ignore her work at their peril, for it is one of those that will change the direction of Hemingway scholarship and that's no mean accomplishment.'Paul Smith, "Rose Marie Burwell's Hemingway: The Postwar Years and the Posthumous Novels is an engaging work of criticism that combines several modes into one. It is a critical biography of Hemingway; an interesting account of some years of Burwell's own archival detective work; and a provocative reading of Hemingway's posthumous novels, on one hand, and of Hemingway himself, on the other....Hemingway scholars should read this book." Canadian Review of Comparative Literature, "...it is a superb work of scholarship, a sensitive and enlightening piece of criticism, and, in an achievement which jarringly alters the accepted cliches of Hemingway studies, it provides the first satisfying answer to question What happened to Hemingway after 1945? Burwell's discussions are solidly grounded on a thorough comprehension of everything we know factually about Hemingway's life..." Earl Rovit, The Sewanee Review, 'This is a masterpiece. She now enters the ranks of the important Hemingway scholars. All of them will have to reckon with her book, and they will be citing it and arguing over it for years to come.' Robert Scholes, "This exemplary study of the texts of the various unfinished narratives is a brilliant piece of scholarship..." Thomas Flanagan, The New York Review of Books, "No one studying this period in Hemingway's life can afford to neglect Rose Marie Burwell's liberating and enlightening contribution." Earl Rovit, The Sewanee Review, 'The sense of discovery in her book ... should alone make this book one of the most sought-after of recent Hemingway texts.' Mark Spilka, "[T]his is a masterpiece. She now enters the ranks of the important Hemingway scholars. All of them will have to reckon with her book, and they will be citing it and arguing over it for years to come." Robert Scholes, Brown University, "Arguing persuasively throughout this text, Burwell demonstrates the literary, professional, personal, and chronologically relational nature of the tetralogy. She thoroughly documents every aspect of her analysis, her claims and speculations, revealing a formidable knowledge of Hemingway's life and work, as well as the body of scholarship which surrounds and supports him, sometimes protectively. Making use of materials, letters and manuscripts earlier close to (or ignored by) scholars, she forges links between texts which provide new critical and biographical insights into the man/writer who has compelled--and sometimes repelled--readers throughout the world." Novel, "Burwell has produced a book that is not only very readable...but is a model of fine scholarship as well: especially impressive is her scholarly detective work. Rose Marie Burwell's excellent book is a significant contribution to Hemingway scholarship. She has also provided a fine rendering of the drama of Hemingway's post-war writing career." Nancy R. Comley, Studies in the Novel, "Burwell is at her best in her discussion of A Moveable Feast and the effect Mary Hemingway and the Scribners editors had on the rearrangement of the original manuscript. Few Hemingway scholars will be able to resist reading and commenting on this clearly written, engaging, and controversial work." Thomas K. Meier, American Literature, "Rose Marie Burwell's Postwar Years and the Posthumous Novels is the superior book....Burwell's book brilliantly offers a unified argument..." Kim Moewland, American Studies International, ‘The sense of discovery in her book … should alone make this book one of the most sought-after of recent Hemingway texts.’Mark Spilka, 'The sense of discovery in her book ... should alone make this book one of the most sought-after of recent Hemingway texts.'Mark Spilka

Ok so I ordered this item listed as having free shipping. It was listed at $43.54 with free shipping. Somehow I ended up being charged $65.52. Then after waiting 3 weeks and having absolutely no tracking information I spoke with the seller who agreed to send a replacment, but despite charging me extra money was unwilling to ship that replacment in a way that wouldn't take atleast 3 more weeks. Ultimately this was a complete waste of time and the seller is not one that I would recommend.

This is not a coloring book!!!!! It’s just a book of black and white photos and even if colored over would look horrible! This book is a scam and I have received 2 items out of 3 I ordered and the third hasn’t even been shipped. Tried to message seller but only option given is to send the item number but no way to give reason for dissatisfaction with item! I would advise not ordering anything from this seller…
