Hemingway Blew His Brains Out For A Reason by Nemo Bopp
Hemingway blew his brains out for a reason. The Father of Modern American Fiction was a fraud. And he knew this better than anyone. Joyce, Scott Fitzgerald, Celine, Henry Miller--these were the real groundbreakers. Papa Ernesto was just another adventure writer and romantic sentimentalist. His prose was simple. His narrative over dramatic. And the world beat a path to his door and Hollywood showered him with riches while Miller and Fitz-gerald continued to depend on the kindness of strangers. The Pulitzer Committee awarded him the Price for The Old Man & The Sea. In reality, a simple rehash of Melville's Whale. The facade was wearing thin and there was little left in Papa's creative juices. Was he afraid that someone was ready to blow his cover; point to the fact that the Emperor was naked?
