Recommended Author Ernest Hemingway


Ernest Hemingway is an American writing legend and Nobel Prize Winner. His novels are sparsely written and easy to read. You feel as if you are really at the places he writes about. I must say that many of the subjects of his novels I am not interested in or frankly would not support his views. However, despite this his novels are fantastic to read. His books on the Spanish Civil War, the First World War, bull fighting and fishing at sea are wonderful.

 
You can go through the Hemingway novels at a fair pace as they are easy to read. I particularly loved the Old Man and the Sea for which Hemingway won the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature. I usually read some Hemingway when I see the pictures of the Hemingway Lookalike competition in Florida each year.

 
You will enjoy Hemingway's writing style and some of the subjects he chooses to write about will provoke some new thoughts on the subject for you too.
