Zustand: very good. New York : Columbia University Press, 2000. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 238 pp. English. text. - Nicholas Delbanco educates, he elucidates without ever saying he is doing so. His readers will learn more about the writing life and the creative process in this book than from any instruction manual, and they will do that without ever feeling they are being taught. The centerpiece of this captivating collection is a novella--"The Lost Suitcase"--that finds its roots in an episode from the life of Ernest Hemingway. Hemingway's wife travels by train from Paris to Switzerland to see him, bringing along a suitcase filled with his manuscripts; the suitcase is stolen. Period. From there, Delbanco allows his novelist's mind to wander and wonder. How was their relationship at the time? What was their reunion like? Was the suitcase really stolen? Was Hemingway's wife happy to come see him? Delbanco's novella creates and recreates the scenario. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9780231115421. Keywords : , Artikel-Nr. 30701
