Focusing on the author's appearances in \u003ci\u003eEsquire\u003c\/i\u003e over forty years, John Fenstermaker traces the evolving nature of Hemingway's presence in its pages: first as the author of twenty-five essays (1933-1936) and six short stories (1936-1939), then as a popular subject for interactions among editors, subscribers, and critics (1933-1961), a process that continued posthumously with reprintings, miscellanea, and reader commentaries (1961-1973). Developing a friendship and correspondence with founding editor Arnold Gingrich, Hemingway contributed to twenty-eight of the magazine's first thirty-three issues, including classic pieces such as \"\"On the Blue Water\"\" and \"\"The Snows of Kilimanjaro.\"\" Through \u003ci\u003eEsquire\u003c\/i\u003e, Fenstermaker finds a portal for tracing a documentary record of Hemingway as both writer and public figure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFilled with incisive commentaries on his roles as reporter, essayist, and fiction writer, \u003ci\u003eA Way to Live Now: How Journalism Shaped Ernest Hemingway\u003c\/i\u003e offers new perspectives on the eventful life and work of one of the twentieth century's most influential authors and complicated personalities.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"LSU Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52551794721048,"sku":"9780807182574","price":30.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-way-to-live-now-how-journalism-shaped-ernest-hemingway-hardback-9780807182574","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
