Love and Ruin - Paula McLain

Love and Ruin -Paula McLain

He and She read

By the author of The Paris Wife, this is the fictional account of the relationship between Martha Gellhorn and Ernest Hemingway.  It took a while for me to get into this book, but once I did, I enjoyed it.  I thought the chapters focusing on Gellhorn’s experiences as a war correspondent were more engrossing than the relationship between these two writers.  But, perhaps that is because that is when Gellhorn, at least as portrayed by McLain, was the most self actualized.
