Hemingway’s love letter to Paris

Ernest Hemingway loved Spain.

But he had many loves, both human and urban.

Apparently, more than a few people leaving flowers at the memorials in Paris have also left copies of his posthumously-published memoir of life there in the 1920s, A Moveable Feast, which is something of a love letter to the city.

Here’s the passage from the book that gives it its title:

“If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life, it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.”
