This book, the first on the subject, explores Hemingway's visits throughout his life to such places as Sicily, Genoa, Rapallo, Cortina, and Venice. Richard Owen describes how Hemingway first visited Italy during World War I, an experience that set the scene for A Farewell to Arms. The writer then returned after World War II, where he would find inspiration for Across the River and into the Trees. When Men without Women was published, some reviewers declared Hemingway to be at heart a reporter preoccupied with bullfighters, soldiers, prostitutes, and hard drinkers, but their claims failed to note that he also wrote sensitively and passionately about love and loss against an Italian backdrop. Owen highlights the significance of Italy in the writer's life. 600 10 $a Hemingway, Ernest, $d 1899-1961 $x Travel $z Italy. 651 0 $a Italy $x Description and travel $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Italy $x In literature. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Owen, Richard. $t Hemingway in Italy. $d London : The Armchair Traveller at the bookHaus, 2017 $z 9781909961418 $w (OCoLC)973182592 830 0 $a Literary traveller series. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180120014730.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20180104061808.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4D8BAFFEC38A11E7B100357297128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
