Ernest Hemingway is considered by some people as one of the greatest writers of all times. My husband and I are avid readers but we don’t see it. I must admit I have not read all his books. Only three of them.
The Sun Also Rises
For Whom the Bell Tolls
A Farewell to Arms
We are of the opinion that there are plenty of writers who are better writers than Ernest Hemingway. However that did not stop us from acquiring some of his books. We own quite a few of them. I started collecting books even before I got married and I acquired those three Hemingway’s books at that time.
From the picture below, you can see the three volumes to your right on the second shelf from the top.
Easton Press published a 20-book collection of Ernest Hemingway books a few years ago and the books are still listed in their catalog. I decided to buy them for my library. Here they are on the top shelf of one of my bookcases. On the second shelf, you’ll see two books with purple or rather blue cover lying flat. Those are the two proofs of my latest book, “The Wentworth Legacy” which is now on pre-order on Kindle.
Here are the names of the books by Ernest Hemingway on the top shelf.

The Sun Also Rises

The Old Man and The Sea
To Have and Have Not
The Dangerous Summer
Across the River and Into The Trees

The Torrents of Spring
Death in the Afternoon

I hope someday I will be able to read them all. Maybe I will change my mind about my opinion of him as a writer. For now, I’m reading books by other authors besides writing some of my own books.
Until next time. Keep on reading.
