Oops.. Well I guess I did kinda write about them. But anyway.. this post is for AP English. And I've been doing my homework.
So I read two of the articles about Mr. Ernest Hemingway.
Iceberg and the short biography.
Things I learned:
1. He was a journalist.
Cool.
2. He fought in World War I and reported during World War II.
I think war really shaped his life - emotionally and physically.
3. He was married 3 or 4 times... and seemed to sleep around a lot.
BOOOOO! When I read about his constant infidelity I kept loosing respect for him (because he sounded like a cool guy).
4. He was a big adventure-lover.
Pretty cool.
5. He has a very unique writing style.
I am intrigued (and maybe a bit excited) to read his work and see for myself!
6. He committed suicide. :(
I did not know this.
