The Ram

Couple of recent reads of mine:
A Long Petal of the Sea by Isabel Allende - 9/10
Set against the Spanish Civil War, and subsequent flight to Chile by thousands of people to escape the oppression of Franco. Masterful and captivating.
A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway - 6/10
The story of Hemingway's life in Paris and relationships with other writers at the time. I can't help feeling that a lot has been excluded from this account, not least the fact that he had at least one affair behind his wife's back.
