Hemingway's Passions with Author Dr. Nancy Sindelar

Thursday, December 5, 2024, 7:00-9:00 PM Ernest Hemingway Birthplace Museum 339 N Oak Park Avenue, Oak Park, IL

As part of our Hemingway in the 21st Century series, we will host a moderated discussion on one of the latest books added to the Hemingway anthology, Hemingway’s Passions: His Women, His Wars and His Writing with author and Hemingway scholar, Dr. Nancy Sindelar.

In 1950, Hemingway told Marlene Dietrich that he truly loved only five women. Who were these women and why did he love them? In Hemingway’s Passions, Dr. Sindelar answers these questions. Through quotations from his works and personal letters, as well as sixty photographs-many of which have not been previously published-she captures Hemingway’s life and romantic adventures, revealing his own feelings about his romantic relationships and the ways his experiences with these women appear in his literary works.

Refreshments and light snacks will be served.
