A fitting location for a mural depicting literary giants Hemingway, Orwell, Nabokov and Joyce.

November 30, 2024 by Blogfinger

 

Paul Goldfinger photo:  Click once to enlarge.      Literary giants and literary girls out for coffee at Barnes and Noble.  Ft. Myers, Fla.   No, the mural does not depict a scene from Woody’s Midnight in Paris.  But those literary figures on the mural  are reminiscent of that film.

Hemingway said:  “If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast.”*

Joyce said,  “His heart danced upon her movements like a cork upon a tide. He heard what her eyes said to him from beneath their cowl and knew that in some dim past, whether in life or revery, he had heard their tale before.”    An erotic sentence if ever there was one.

 

* A Moveable Feast is a 1964  memoir by American author Ernest Hemingway.
