Balzar on Hemingway
- Share via
In the guise of a Saturday Journal story about the Ernest Hemingway centennial (Jan. 16), John Balzar has given us an example of the Hemingway style at its very best. Hemingway’s life, with its strengths and weaknesses, was vividly evoked by the quality of the prose describing it. As a former journalist himself, Hemingway would have been proud to see his hard-learned writing lessons in newspaper columns. Bravo.
