Ernest Hemingway - Authors List

Ernest Hemingway - Authors List. I read 5 books by Hemingway who when I was growing up was considered the classic American writer that everyone should read. 

I was 18 when I read The Old Man and the Sea. At that time I was a young man getting ready to go to sea. Over the years I read a few of his novels but I was never excited about his writings. However, he did have an interesting life working as a journalist and world traveler. He also sustained numerous very serious injuries throughout his career around the world which eventually led to his suicide. I think I would like to read a good biography of his life.

I also enjoyed some of the films made from his writings.

Ernest Hemingway books I've read:

  • The Old Man and the Sea, 1952 - Oct 1970
  • A Farewell to Arms, 1929 - Sep 1977
  • To Have and To Have Not, 1937 - Aug 1980
  • For Whom the Bell Tolls, 1940 - Dec 1985
  • The Sun Also Rises, 1926 - Jul 2012
