"1: The Trouble With People
There was a crowd at the Rotonde but they found a table inside looking out through the windows at the terasse and the boulevard. It was five o'clock and already dark."This book combines fact and fiction to weave a tale about a lost suitcase containing all of Hemingway's writing at the age of 22. The opening pages appear to be the author's imagining of one of the stories from the suitcase.
From there? I must read on!

Very interesting beginning. Some beginning lines aren't that great, but I have seen some really good ones today.
THANKS for sharing.

Not sure if I'd read on, but I do like that sentence! Check out my Friday 56
Long lost letters seem to piece together quite interesting stories :)
