Welcome to Litsy!

My husband is on a Hemingway kick. He picked this up while we were books shopping in Singapore a few days ago. We have a final day of pool reading planned today.

The landscape is beautiful. Hemingway goes hunting. Someone else goes hunting. They discuss the hunt. They eat. They go for a ride. They hunt again. They meet someone. Someone goes hunting again etc....
In short: macho‘s hunting and eating/drinking.
BUT: Hemingway is such a great writer he even gets me hypnotized with a boring book:-)

My beloved Hemingway never betrayed. A magnificent Safari throught the great Africa: warm, immense, cozy, wild. An unbridled hunt in search of the best prey. For Hemingway a place to live, a place to feel at home. #book #booklover #Hemingway #read #libro #libri #litsybook

" A country is made to remain what we find it. We are the distruptors and after our death it will be also completely ruined, but it will always be there..."

"It dated back to the time of Droopy, after I had come back from being ill in Nairobi and we have gone on a foot safari to hunt rhino in the forest." This is where I stopped reading. This picture is of a rhino I saw on my safari. It is a white rhino - black rhinos are critically endangered. I wonder which species Hemingway shot at so happily.
