War is no longer made by simply analyzed economic forces if it ever was. War is made or planned now by individual men, demagogues and dictators who play on the patriotism of their people to mislead them into a belief in the great fallacy of war when all their vaunted reforms have failed to satisfy the people they misrule. ~Ernest Hemingway

'You have youth, confidence, and a job, ' the older waiter said. 'You have everything.'
'And what do you lack?''Everything but work.''You have everything I have.''No. I have never had confidence and I am not young.''I am those who like to stay late in the cafe', the older waiter said. 'With all those who do not want to go to bed. With all those who need a light for the night.'---A Clean Well-Lighted Place,Ernest HemingwayI still remember in the Creative Writing Program from the University of Iowa this was the first story we need to read and analyze.The sheer brilliance of Hemingway's art of stripping language to the bare minimum with all details reaching the depth. The use of dialogues and to portray pictures of the night with the shadow of the leaves on the table in contrast to the light that the waiters speak of.I perhaps read this fifteen times. Yesterday I read it again in this marvelous Vintage Hemingway edition of "The Essential Hemingway."I rank this story as Hemingway's best after a near novella "The Snows of Kilimanjaro."

人工智慧概述
歐內斯特·海明威在1939年至1960年間選擇居住在古巴，因為那裡寧靜祥和、充滿靈感，且文化底蘊深厚，完美地滋養了他的寫作、對垂釣的熱愛以及遠離美國喧囂的私密生活。他深愛古巴人民，自稱“Cubano sato”（一個普通的古巴人），並在哈瓦那輕鬆而充滿活力的氛圍以及科希馬爾漁村感到賓至如歸。
他選擇古巴的主要原因包括：
創作效率與氛圍：他發現自己的家－維希亞莊園（Finca Vigía）－是個完美的靜謐寫作之地，使他得以創作出《老人與海》等傑作。
對釣魚的熱愛：靠近大海的地理位置讓他可以駕駛著他的漁船「皮拉爾號」（Pilar）出海釣魚馬林魚，這艘船是他古巴生活的重要組成部分。
文化連結：他很享受當地的文化，包括弗洛里迪塔酒吧（El Floridita）的代基里酒以及與當地人民的友誼，他非常敬佩他們。
與美國主流生活方式的疏離：古巴為他提供了一個必要的避風港，讓他得以逃離童年、美國生活，以及有時被名利所左右的生活，體驗一種截然不同、更為簡單的生活方式。
一種「本土」感受：與他在歐洲的時光不同，他完全融入了古巴的自然風光，與這座島嶼及其人民建立了一種深刻而持久的聯繫。

MORE BY AND ABOUT THIS AUTHOR
H Martha Gellhorn (1908–1998) was a woman of enormous accomplishment. Writer and journalist, she covered the major international conflicts of her lifetime, from the Spanish civil war to Vietnam, managed to land on Omaha Beach shortly after D-Day, entered Dachau a few days after it was liberated, observed the Nuremberg trials and, in the course of a long life, visited and wrote about most of the areas of the world. But she was a woman working in a man's world and, as the subtitle of Moorehead's first-rate biography reminds us, hers was a 20th century life, filled with all the contradictions between private and public existence experienced by most achieving women of her generation. As her first husband, Ernest Hemingway, put it before their acrimonious divorce, "Are you a war correspondent or wife in my bed?" a question Gellhorn finally answered by leaving him. As Moorehead shows, Gellhorn, at once tough and vulnerable, was surefooted in her professional life and capable of enduring friendships with people as varied as Eleanor Roosevelt, Robert Capa (some of whose photos are included) and Leonard Bernstein. Her intimate life was another matter, with both her marriages and her numerous affairs all ending in tears. Moorehead, the author of well-received biographies of Iris Origo and Bertrand Russell, was a friend of Gellhorn's, but the affection and admiration she feels for her subject (to whose papers she had exclusive access) does not prevent her from providing a vivid, balanced and fascinating portrait of a "woman who was oddly deaf to the intonations of feminism," and yet who paid a price for her independent spirit. 16 pages of b&w photos not seen by PW. Agent, Clare Alexander. (Oct. 1)

有些書想到時會重翻，
流動的饗宴是其中之一。
不過，
我其實更早看過失落的一代，
不知道原是同一本。
晨鐘的書也很經典。
重看的書，
每次都看到不同的重點，
之前看時代和文人活動，
這次看海明威的創作觀。
海明威提到創作的間隙，
休息，做愛，閱讀都很重要，
讓創作水井的水源豐滿⋯⋯。
不過我一直沒搞清楚塞尚對他創作上的實質影響是什麼🤔。
月前答應到花蓮演講，
不過，
不知道我和颱風小犬誰先抵達⋯⋯。
這次去花蓮也會講帕慕克的伊斯坦堡
