![]() ![]() He visited Spain during the Civil War and described his experiences in the bestseller, For Whom the Bell Tolls. He was passionately involved with bullfighting, big-game hunting and deep-sea fishing and his writing reflected this. His international reputation was firmly secured by his next three books Fiesta, Men Without Women and A Farewell to Arms. Hemingway's first two published works were Three Stories and Ten Poems and In Our Time but it was the satirical novel, The Torrents of Spring, that established his name more widely. Their encouragement and criticism were to play a valuable part in the formation of his style. He settled in Paris where he renewed his earlier friendships with such fellow-American expatriates as Ezra Pound and Gertrude Stein. ![]() In 1922, he reported on the Greco-Turkish war before resigning from journalism to devote himself to fiction. He returned to America in 1919, and married in 1921. The following year, he volunteered as an ambulance driver on the Italian front, where he was badly wounded but decorated for his services. In 1917, Hemingway joined the Kansas City Star as a cub reporter. Their home was at Oak Park, a Chicago suburb. His father was a doctor and he was the second of six children. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Jackie will travel up and down the eastern seaboard as well as the midwest to feature bands in many summer festivals.

Someone’s killed Father.” I wiped my hand across my mouth, licked my teeth.īridget came down, brought with her the smell of decayed meaty-meat. I walked out of the room, closed the door behind me, and made my way to the back stairs, shouted once more to Bridget, “Quickly. My heart beat nightmares, gallop, gallop, as I looked at Father again, watched blood river down his neck and disappear into suit cloth. I wiped my hand across my mouth, tasted blood. I touched his bleeding hand, how long does it take for a body to become cold? and leaned closer to his face, tried to make eye contact, waited to see if he might blink, might recognize me. “Daddy,” I had said, “I’m giving this to you because I love you.” He had smiled and kissed my forehead. ![]() I gave him that ring for his birthday when I no longer wanted it. I looked at Father, the way hands clutched to thighs, the way the little gold ring on his pinkie finger sat like a sun. I yelled, “Someone’s killed Father.” I breathed in kerosene air, licked the thickness from my teeth. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The story actually starts in 1945, when Pao is visited by Gloria, a Jamaican woman who comes to Pao in Kingston's Chinatown after her sister's been badly beaten by a white sailor. It's an interesting book in which Pao's story plays out through all of the political, social and economic changes that occur in that 50-year period, taking the reader from the last decades of British colonialism through Jamaica's independence and its aftermath. Approximately fifty years elapse in this story, from Pao's arrival through the re-election of Prime Minister Michael Manley in 1989. The lovely island of Jamaica is the setting for this novel which centers around Yang Pao, a Chinese immigrant who landed there in 1938 at the age of 14 with his family after escaping civil war in China. ![]() |
