We recognize Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and T.S. Eliot but where did the laptops and the cellphones come from? And why are they making homemade cheese for a Croc-monsieur? This Paris, this world is a madcap mash-up where time collides on itself. It's still a feast that lasts a lifetime and goes anywhere, and Snyder's observations, insights and eccentricities feel very much as if they passed through Hemingway's mind on the way to the page.Funny, delightful, and puzzling when the observer sees in the mirror the person he wishes to see rather than who's really there. But don't we all have a bit of that quality in us? Isn't that how we live? Isn't that what makes living a bearable Gulagian madhouse for some?If you know Hemingway, you'll recognize many of the send-ups. If you've never read a word or seen any of the film adaptations, you'll still find \"Parisian Reasons\" enjoyable: filled with wit, modesty, and exuberance - not the Hemingway you expected because he isn't. He's Jay Snyder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 182\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.39 x 7.99 x 5.24 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 15, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48716815401209,"sku":"9780989215312","price":20.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/3s_akF9pj-9780989215312.webp?v=1785075652","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/parisian-reasons-an-homage-to-hemingways-a-moveable-feast-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
