His parents were well-educated and well-respected in Oak Park, a conservative community about which resident Frank Lloyd Wright said, "So many churches for so many good people to go to." I just wonder how a respected publisher like W.W. Norton would allow that. There are no axes to grind, nor are there halos around young Hemingway; he is as real on Reynolds' page as anyone we might know, and that is one of the Reynolds' major achievements here: by the end of this work, one actually feels as if they understand some real aspects of the fabled author, the myth is stripped away, and we see something very human.
"Big Two-Hearted River" seems to be a longer short story about fishing, when in fact it is a cleverly crafted examination of the causes and effects of World War I. Reynolds is the first biographer who came out and directly stated what many others had known for years--that Hemingway had fabricated and overstated his heroic experiences in the First World War.
The book is very well-researched and examines Hemingway's relationships with family members, his upbringing in Oak Park, and his experiences in Italy during the First World War. Everything you ever wanted to know about what formed the personality of this author and affected him for the rest of his life.

It has a lot of interesting information about influences on his writing and development as a writer.
Keeping up with this speed is murder. Ships from and sold by Amazon.com.
He brings Hemingway through World War I, where he was frustrated by being too far away from the action and glory, despite his being wounded and nursed to health by Agnes Von Kurowsky—the older woman with whom he fell terribly in love.Oh man, the audiobook narration by Allen O'Reilly is NOT to my liking. The book is very readable and is always interesting. This is a great introduction to Papa’s life.

Lots of typos and it seemed (to me, anyway) to be all over the place, at least for the first half. They are either overly tedious or inane in their detail, too dry or too glossy in their treatment of the subject. This shopping feature will continue to load items when the Enter key is pressed.
A National Book Award finalist. The author is also fair in his treatment of the subject.

The Young Hemingway captivated me as thoroughly as a novel, and rather than finding myself skipping sections and slogging through chapters, I found myself unable to pry my eyes from the pages.
In a separate volume Reynolds's long account of life in Oak Park where Hemingway was raised and American Culture would make interesting reading.The question for me is whether the material that is relevant to Hemingway could have been covered in much less space and probably included in the second volume in the 5-volume series. He reveals the fraught foundations of Hemingway's persona: his father's self-destructive battle with depression and his mother's fierce independence and spiritualism.
The Young Hemingway is a detailed account of Hemingway family life and his early years. I feel the essence of Hemingway in this time period is more clearly evoked than in any other biographical sketch I've read. I'm looking forward to the next in the series, when Hem goes to Paris. Reynolds does an excellent job distilling new primary sources and a lifetime of schol In general, I find myself bored with most biographies.
I need a gulp of fresh air.
I have a love/hate relationship with him but I absolutely love his books. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.
Hotchner, which is a good work but Hotchner was such a Hemingway worshiper that some of his work can be called in to question and doubt, if one desires to do so. Ernest Miller Hemingway was born on July 21, 1899, in Oak Park, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, to Clarence Edmonds Hemingway, a physician, and Grace Hall Hemingway, a musician.
