THE SUN ALSO RISES
Write drunk
Edit sober.
Ernest Hemingway
My aim is to put on paper
What I see
What I feel in the best and simplest way.
There is no friend as
loyal as a book.
All three quotes by Ernest Hemingway,
I set my mind to reading at least five classic books in a year. It was with no doubt I would start with Ernest. I thought of F Scott Fitzgerald because in as much as I have watched “The great Gatsby”, I am yet to read the book. Which I hear is phenomenal!!!
Ernest and I had a rough start. His style of writing is completely different from what I have read before. I fall in love with descriptive authors. Ernest is not. He is short and very unpredictable. I finally warmed up to him after a month and a half. Guess the Sun rose and caught up with me,
I now have an appreciation to his style of writing. He dint have me at Hello, but not all relationships start out that way,
The book is a gem. If you have an appreciation for beautiful prose. Grab this book.
