Hemingway versus TS Eliot

At last, from the archives at the Heldfond Book Gallery in San Anselmo, California, two great writers go head to head. Hemingway calls Eliot a nancy boy because he writes poems about cats. He does have a point. Hemingway is always going to win although Eliot gets in a nice shotgun/mouth jibe. Poets are hopeless in a rough-house scrap.
