A deeply evocative story of ambition and betrayal, The Paris Wife captures a remarkable period of time and a love affair between two unforgettable people: Ernest Hemingway and his wife Hadley.

Chicago, 1920: Hadley Richardson is a quiet twenty-eight-year-old who has all but given up on love and happiness—until she meets Ernest Hemingway and her life changes forever. Following a whirlwind courtship and wedding, the pair set sail for Paris, where they become the golden couple in a lively and volatile group—the fabled “Lost Generation”—that includes Gertrude Stein, Ezra Pound, and F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald.

Our neighbors were moving and left a pile of books on the sidewalk. My son went and retrieved them for me. This is one the books he retrieved.

This book was left on the bookshelf inside the Starbucks located on the southwest corner of 7th Street and Thunderbird Road.

It was released for the 2016 June Brides release challenge.
