"BIG WHOOP!"

Today GalleyCat sent around something of a curiosity from the good fellows at Open Culture: a list of book recommendations, penned by Ernest Hemingway for his protege Arnold Samuelson, who came to view the grizzled writer as something of a father figure. This blog says: Big Whoop! The list is mostly men--not that the blog is surprised by this--and there's a good chance Hemingway punched Samuelson at one point or another. This 1984 book review of Samuelson's only and posthumously published book, With Hemingway: A Year in Key West and Cuba, quotes Samuelson describing Papa as having "the instinctive poise of a fighter ready to hit" and that "his dark eyes, which were almost closed, looked me over the way a boxer measures his opponent for a knockout punch." Yikes! For the record, the blog has only read one story by Hemingway and couldn't give two turds about him. The blog will continue to paint Hemingway as a monster.
