Hemingway's Passions with Author Dr. Nancy Sindelar

  • Ernest Hemingway Birthplace Museum 339 North Oak Park Avenue Oak Park, IL, 60302 United States (map)

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 anthologyHemingway’s Passions: His Women, His Wars and His Writing with author and Hemingway scholar, Dr. Nancy Sindelar. Refreshments and light snacks will be served.

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.

The event is FREE, but we kindly ask you to please register via the blue box link below to assist us in making accommodations for all.
