News of Paris

"News of Paris recaptures the colorful, often zany world of Paris-American journalists during the glory days of the expatriate period. It does so by concentrating on the lives of such figures as Ernest Hemingway, James Thurber, Henry Miller, Elliot Paul, William L. Shirer, Dorothy Thompson, Janet Flanner, and Eric Sevareid, and on the life of the major newspapers, including the Paris Herald (the New York Herald Tribuen's European edition) and the Tribune, the lively and innovative offspring of the Chicago Tribune. Others populating the pages of News of Paris include Harold Stearns, Paul Scott Mowrer, Bill Bird, Vincent Sheean, Waverley Root, Eugene Jolas, Martha Foley, Whit Burnett, Ned Calmer, and A. J. Liebling."--BOOK JACKET.

המשפט הראשון: ARRIVAL. Jake Barnes's work in Ernest Hemingway's novel is newspaper work, though we only glimpse him at it-reading French morning papers, turning to the typewriter and getting off his daily duty of rewrite for dispatch by weekly mail from Gare St. Lazare, attending a briefing at the Quai d'Orsay-before he is off from Paris for the Lost Generation escapades in Spain.
