New York Publisher Simply Charly Announced Today the Release of Its Critically Acclaimed Book About Ernest Hemingway

The Paris Husband by Scott Donaldson is a "masterful work," critics say.

New York, NY, July 15, 2018 --(PR.com)-- On December 3, 1922, before boarding an overnight train from France to Switzerland, Ernest Hemingway’s first wife, Hadley, lost a valise containing her husband’s early stories and the beginning of a novel. That critical moment, as well as the marriage itself, inspired the new book, The Paris Husband, released today in e-book form by Simply Charly.

The print and audio editions are scheduled for release later this year.

The author, Scott Donaldson, is a Hemingway scholar and a highly acclaimed biographer, having written eight life stories about America’s leading literary figures. “The passionate relationship between the budding author and his first wife was ultimately ‘doomed,’ but it had a lifelong impact on Hemingway and his writing,” Donaldson said.

He added that “many misconceptions have been circulating about Ernest and Hadley’s marriage, but this book is based solely on factual evidence.”

Even before publication, The Paris Husband has received great praise from experts in the field. Valerie Hemingway, Ernest’s daughter-in-law and author of Running With the Bulls: My Years with the Hemingways, called the book “a masterful work and a cracking good read.”

According to Jackson R. Bryer, President and co-founder of F. Scott Fitzgerald Society and co-editor of French Connections: Hemingway and Fitzgerald Abroad, “Donaldson debunks myths, setting the record straight in a fascinating and highly readable narrative that will be as revelatory for Hemingway fans as for those previously unfamiliar with the story of his first marriage.”

Mark Cirino, co-editor of Hemingway and Italy: 21st Century Perspectives and editor of the Reading Hemingway Series, pointed out that “If there were a Mount Rushmore of Hemingway scholars, Scott Donaldson would belong. This lucid, engaging history of Hemingway’s first marriage only enhances that legendary reputation.”

And Kirk Curnutt, author of Coffee with Hemingway and A Reader’s Guide to Hemingway’s To Have and Have Not described the book as “a beautiful piece of storytelling by one of our best American biographers.”

“We are delighted with the excellent reviews the book has received from critics and are confident our readers will find it to be a wonderful and authoritative source of information about one of America’s most illustrious writers,” said Charles Carlini, Simply Charly’s CEO.
