Author Paula McLain on The Paris Wife
Most of us know or think we know who Ernest Hemingway was -- a brilliant writer full of macho swagger, driven to take on huge feats of bravery and a pitcher or two of martinis -- before lunch. But beneath this man or myth, or some combination of the two, is another Hemingway, one we’ve never seen before. Hadley Richardson, Hemingway’s first wife, is the perfect person to reveal him to us -- and also to immerse us in the incredibly exciting and volatile world of Jazz-age Paris.
The idea to write in Hadley’s voice came to me as I was reading Hemingway’s memoir, A Moveable Feast, about his early years in Paris. In the final pages, he writes of Hadley, “I wished I had died before I ever loved anyone but her.” That line, and his portrayal of their marriage -- so tender and poignant and steeped in regret -- inspired me to search out biographies of Hadley, and then to research their brief and intense courtship and letters -- they wrote hundreds and hundreds of pages of delicious pages to another!
I couldn’t help but fall in love with Hadley, and through her eyes, with the young Ernest Hemingway. He was just twenty when they met, handsome and magnetic, passionate and sensitive and full of dreams. I was surprised at how much I liked and admired him -- and before I knew it, I was entirely swept away by their gripping love story.
I hope you will be as captivated by this remarkable couple as I am -- and by the fascinating world of Paris in the 20’s, the fast-living, ardent and tremendously driven Lost Generation.

A deeply evocative story of ambition and betrayal, The Paris Wife captures a remarkable period of time and a love affair between two unforgettable people: Ernest Hemingway and his wife Hadley.
Chicago, 1920: Hadley Richardson is a quiet twenty-eight-year-old who has all but given up on love and happiness—until she meets Ernest Hemingway and her life changes forever. Following a whirlwind courtship and wedding, the pair set sail for Paris, where they become the golden couple in a lively and volatile group—the fabled “Lost Generation”—that includes Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.
Though deeply in love, the Hemingways are ill prepared for the hard-drinking and fast-living life of Jazz Age Paris, which hardly values traditional notions of family and monogamy. Surrounded by beautiful women and competing egos, Ernest struggles to find the voice that will earn him a place in history, pouring all the richness and intensity of his life with Hadley and their circle of friends into the novel that will become The Sun Also Rises . Hadley, meanwhile, strives to hold on to her sense of self as the demands of life with Ernest grow costly and her roles as wife, friend, and muse become more challenging. Despite their extraordinary bond, they eventually find themselves facing the ultimate crisis of their marriage—a deception that will lead to the unraveling of everything they’ve fought so hard for.
A heartbreaking portrayal of love and torn loyalty, The Paris Wife is all the more poignant because we know that, in the end, Hemingway wrote that he would rather have died than fallen in love with anyone but Hadley.

用戶評價
一本人物傳記小說,雖然作者強調說盡量依據事實進行創作,但仍然多多少少覺得有點太過軟瞭.我本身對海明威有點成見,一是他在作傢圈風評不好,二是參觀key west故居時也聽瞭不少rumour.不過倒的確是這種比較“作”的drama個性和人生纔可能孕育著一個能寫好作品的作傢吧.據說這本書也可以看作是hadley視覺的《流動的盛宴》.總體來說,作者語言風格我沒有很喜歡,有點太絮叨太婆媽,裏麵齣現瞭無數認識的不認識的人物,多數也是讓我咬牙切齒,特彆是一度憎恨海明威到一個點.不過冷靜一下想想,倒覺得this is life.還是多多少少有點感觸的,特彆是作為一個女人.不過還是不得不說,最喜歡的一個場景是菲茨傑拉德和他老婆zelda的齣場,還在great gatsby齣版前,想象一下那個畫麵都覺得像夢.

评分a peek of Hemingway's life in paris
评分以一個細膩女子的視角 展現瞭那個時代獨特的巴黎 藝術傢 酒吧 歌聲 和那個混賬裏充滿柔情和悲劇的海明威
评分如果主人公不是海明威，這也就是一個平平常常的愛情小說。
