The best people possess a feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for sacrifice. Ironically, their virtues make them vulnerable; they are often wounded, sometimes destroyed. - Ernest Hemingway

They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war, there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason. ~Earnest Hemingway~

The terrible curse of the Hemingway family

By Iris Fourgeaud

For many generations, the family of Ernest Hemingway was victim of strange suicides. This gossip started due to the release of the documentary of Ernest grand-daughter, Mariel Hemingway. The documentary portrayed the highly estemeed writer and journalist with terrible allegations. In which we will go in depth about those.

Drugs problems or Random Suicides ?

There have been several suicides in the Hemingway family. This includes his father, who killed himself when Ernest was only 29, three of his siblings (Ernest Jr., Ursula, and Leicester), and his granddaughter, Margaux. Margaux, who was a famous model, took her own life by overdosing on barbiturates.

Mariel Hemingway describes her family as extremely creative but victims to mental health problems and addiction.

Ernest's last days were extremely troubled, and while it seems as though loved ones did try to help him, he ended up succumbing to his mental illnesses. 1960 was the year when things began to really take a turn for the worse.

Ernest had left Cuba to live in New York City but had traveled to Spain for a photo shoot with Life. Reports of his deteriorating health began circulating, but he assured his wife Mary that he was fine. He ended up getting treated at the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. And then went through electroconvulsive therapy for at least 15 times. He was diagnosed with depression, a few medical experts at the time thought his state was due to abusing drugs like Ritalin.

The horrendous secrets

“I grew up watching a family that was completely amazing and creative but also destructive and self medicating. All of them, they were addicts. I didn’t want to end up like that. I was on a mission," said Mariel Hemingway. Shortly after the release of the documentary by Barbara Kopple in 2013.

“Running From Crazy”, Mariel shares that she believes her own father, Jack Hemingway, sexually abused her sisters Margaux and Joan (her father passed away in 2000). Mariel told CNN, that although she doesn't remember Jack abusing her, she remembers sleeping in her mother's room, which she thinks could have been a way for her mother to protect her. She also added that Jack may not have known what he was doing because he'd be black-out drunk.

However, nobody talked about mental illness in her family up until recently. “Nobody spoke about anything. It was a different generation," Mariel said.

“We were just like the Kennedy family”, said Mariel. The documentary was presented at the Sundance Film Festival. She reflected on her past, and says herself that she suffered from heavy depression and had suicidal thoughts. “We were this American family followed by this damned curse” Mariel said.

The title of the documentary is strongly percussive, however despite every horrible accusations, nowadays, his granddaughter Mariel, has made it her mission to spread awareness about mental illness. We can Learn more about Ernest Hemingway's life and his and his family's battle with mental illness in the documentary “Hemingway”, released in 2021.

Ernest Hemingway and la ville lumière

By Maya Freitas

Ernest Miller Hemingway, famous American writer known for his novel, “Le Vieil homme à la Mer” have been for a long time inspired by Paris. Symbol of freedom after World War II for Americans, the City of Light quickly became synonymous with modernity.

On the advice of the American novelist Sherwood Anderson, the young Ernest Hemingway, then 22 years old, landed in Paris on December 22nd, 1921, accompanied by his wife. From his arrival in the capital, Hemingway trained, improved his style, met many English-speaking writers, and marked the beginning of a long road with Paris.

The influence of Parisian places

From the small miserable apartment, 74 rue du Cardinal-Lemoine, to the bar "le Falstaff" 42 rue du Montparnasse, Ernest Hemingway has been able to immerse himself in the diversity of Parisian places in his own way.

The writer began his writings in his small apartment whose walls "smell of musty and cabbage" as he described it in “Paris est une fête». He then discovered the refuge of English-speaking expatriates, "Shakespeare and Company". There he met the American poet Gertrude Stein, who encouraged him to abandon his journalism side to devote himself fully to literature.

Alcohol at the service of literature

Known to be an insatiable drinker, Hemingway frequented many bars such as "Le Dôme", "La Coupole" or even "La Rotonde". But very quickly, the famous American writer established his headquarters at "La Clauserie des Lilas", where he completed in just six weeks. One of his many masterpieces “Le soleil se lève aussi”, considered one of the great English-language novels of the twentieth century.

Ernest Hemingway finishes his ego during an improvised boxing match between himself and his Canadian writer friend, Morley Callaghan, in the bar "Le Falstaff". The author of "The Gatsby", drunk by the rain of blows but especially vexed, was convinced that Fitzgerald had done it on purpose to better humiliate him.

Despite his many adventures in the Parisian bars as well as a penniless arrival, Ernest Hemingway was able to extract the benefits of the City of Light. A lost lover of the capital, the latter was able to highlight his vision of Paris in his books and writings.
