A Moveable Feast
by Ernest Hemingway
Among these small, reflective sketches are memorable meetings with members of hemingway's lightly ragged circle of artists and writers, some of whom are doomed to achieve fame and notoriety, while others fall into obscurity. Here, too, the difficulty of Paris, which Hemingway knew in his youth As a young writer, a map drawn in the impressive prose of the streets, cafes and bookstores that make up the city where he sometimes struggles with the cold and hunger of poverty, where he acquires the skill of his craft. "Feast of Action" is simultaneously an appeal to the wonderful group of immigrants who gathered in Paris in the twenties and a testament to the risks and rewards of writing.
