Anyone read "The Paris Wife" a work of fiction about Earnest Hemingway and his first wife? |

Is it any good? Cause I usually don't read biographical fiction unless it is great. I like to separate fact from fiction in my mind.

2. Just finished it. It's ok - gets repetitive and boring in parts. |
|
Could have been cut by a hundred pages or so.

4. A Moveable Feast is Hemingway's own take |

on the Paris years. It's a gem of a book.
