On Writing ~
E. Hemingway (Two letters in March, 1925. Paris.)
To: Horace Liveright (American Publisher): "As the contract only mentions excisions it is understood of course that no alterations of words shall be made without my approval. This protects you as much as it does me as the stories are written so tight and so hard that the alteration of a word can throw an entire story out of key...There is nothing in the book that has not a definite place in its organization and if I at any time seem to repeat myself I have a good reason for doing so."
To Dr. C.E.Hemingway (EH's Dad): "You see I'm trying in all my stories to get the feeling of the actual life across--not to just depict life--or criticize it--but to actually make it alive. So that when you have read something by me you actually experience the thing. You can't do this without putting in the bad and the ugly as well as what is beautiful. Because if it is all beautiful you can't believe in it. Things aren't that way. It is only by showing both sides--3 dimensions and if possible 4 that you can write the way I want to."
