"Matthew Bruccoli and Judith Baughman have culled and collected a trove of significant material that, taken together, tells us more about Hemingway than most of the biographies and quite a lot, as well, about ourselves who gave the man’s public myths a patina of credibility. This fine and useful book is a real contribution to our understanding of a great American writer."—George Garrett
"Ernest Hemingway didn't have talent, his talent had him, and it bounced him off the walls of his career until the end. His image is too much with us, his words on paper not enough. Hemingway and the Mechanism of Fame goes one more step toward curing this and adds an extra dimension to a writer who deserves all the history he can get."—Alan Furst "Hemingway and the Mechanism of Fame is an invaluable and oddly riveting little volume about the Big Man that will delight the general reader and stimulate the student."—Christopher Buckley
"The extraordinary element of his self-generated celebrity is that everything he did apart from writing seemed to have to do with literature. . . . It was somehow understood that Hemingway was fishing, hunting, boozing, wenching, and brawling for the eventual enrichment of American literature."—Matthew J. Bruccoli, from the introduction
Judith S. Baughman is the author of F. Scott Fitzgerald in the Literary Masters series and coeditor of books about Fitzgerald, Hemingway, and Wolfe.
