---Hemingway, 1950
I was so captured by this comment and I borrowed this book from the library.
I was in Paris during Easter break and I was in love with her again.It is hard to explain why I love Paris, I have thought, is it because of the trees? The cafes? But later on I found similar trees being planted in Strasebourg and Spain. So not the trees!I think it's the atmosphere in Paris that Im in love with. The art, the food, the lifestyle, the people, the language...I enjoyed reading the book, Hemingway showed us his time spent as an expat in Paris with his first wife. He introduced us his friends in Paris, the nice cafes that he went to,the happiness that he had in Paris:)I learnt more about the 1920s Paris! I googled the names of his fds and discovered so many nice things! Like his fd Scott Fitzgerald and Pascin.
I love the ending of the book!
Paris
was never to be the same again, although it was always Paris and you changed as
it changed.
There is
never any ending to Paris and the memory of each person who has lived in it
differs from that of any other. We always returned to it no matter who we were
or how it was changed or with what difficulties, or ease, it could be reached.
Paris was always worth it and you received return for whatever you brought to
it. But this is how Paris was in the early days when we were very poor and very
happy.
I wish I could visit Paris again later! Visit the Musée du Luxembourg to see the work of Cézanne, Manet, and Monet.
