What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?

Only the stuttering riflesā rapid rattle
Can patter out their hasty orisonsā¦

Hemmingway didnāt do any of the things he said he did- or rather, paid people to take him there and show him things. He certainly wasnāt a skilled hunter, and heāll was a merely adequate writer.
Which is why all the good bits were shadow written
Which, I canāt really disagree with your statement. Tuberville is that useless, after all.
Iāve seen and heard nothing about Hemingway having a shadow writer? He was certainly a drunk and not entirely a good person, even for his time.
Never heard that about Hemingway, but I have heard that about Tennessee Williams. Maybe theyāre confusing the two?
Wait until you find out who shakespearās shadow writer was.
Itās actually historically very common. Most of the āclassicsā had them.
Did Hemmingway write 100% accurate biographical accounts of his experiences? No. He was a fiction writer who self promoted and built a brand.
To each is own. Iām not a huge fan, but heās hardly the first writer to build his own ethos.
