2015rif. 29462Boston:: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt 2015. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine bright dust jacket. In the summer of 1925 Ernest Hemingway and a clique of raucous companions traveled to Pamplona Spain for the town’s infamous running of the bulls. Then over the next six weeks he channeled that trip’s maelstrom of drunken brawls sexual rivalry midnight betrayals and midday hangovers into his groundbreaking novel The Sun Also Rises. Lesley Blume resurrects the explosive restless landscape of 1920s Paris and Spain and reveals how Hemingway helped create his own legend. He made himself into a death-courting bull-fighting aficionado; a hard-drinking short-fused literary genius; and an expatriate bon vivant. Blume’s account reveals the inner circle of the Lost Generation as we have never seen it before and shows how it still influences what we read and how we think about youth sex love and excess.

Crosby was an American heir bon vivant poet and an exemplar of the Lost Generation in American literature. During World War I he served as a volunteer ambulance driver. On November 22 1917 a German shell seriously wounded a man standing next to Crosby. As Crosby drove several wounded soldiers to a medical aid station his ambulance was destroyed by artillery fire. Miraculously Crosby was unhurt. He declared later that that was the night he changed from a boy to a man. After the war Crosby abandoned all pretence of living the expected life of a privileged Bostonian. Instead he moved to Paris with his wife and together they devoted themselves to art and poetry. Together they founded the Black Sun Press and published many important writers and poets in Paris. But because of his near death experience during the war Harry had a deep obsession with death until on December 10 1929 he and one of his many female intimates committed suicide. Some Crosby scholars maintain that Harry shot Josephine and several hours later shot himself. Others suggest that Josephine shot herself first leaving Crosby little choice but to follow suit.
