A deeply evocative historical novel capturing the passionate and volatile romance between Ernest Hemingway and his first wife, Hadley.
In 1920s Chicago, twenty-eight-year-old Hadley Richardson meets a young Ernest Hemingway, sparking a whirlwind courtship and marriage. The couple soon sets sail for Paris, joining the fabled Lost Generation circle that includes Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald. As Ernest struggles to find the literary voice that will earn him a place in history, Hadley strives to maintain her own identity amidst the hard-drinking, fast-living atmosphere of Jazz Age Paris. The narrative explores the heavy personal cost of serving as a master's muse and the ultimate deception that unravels their marriage.
