Sobre este artículo

Publisher's green cloth with stamped gilt titles and Hemingway 'signature' in gilt. The bindings are tight and square. Text clean, light even toning. Minimal shelf handling wear. Dust jacket with the price of $10.00. Map endpages. First Edition, First Printing with Scribner's code "A-9.70 (V)" on copyright page.. Islands in the Stream is the first of the posthumously published novels of Ernest Hemingway. The book was originally intended to revive Hemingway's reputation after the negative reviews of Across the River and Into the Trees. He began writing it in 1950 and advanced greatly through 1951.
First published in 1970, nine years after Ernest Hemingway's death, Islands in the Stream is the story of an artist and adventurer, a man much like Hemingway himself. Rich with the uncanny sense of life and action characteristic of his writing - from his earliest stories this compelling novel contains both the warmth of recollection that inspired A Moveable Feast and a rare glimpse of Hemingway's rich and relaxed sense of humor, which enlivens scene after scene.
