When I visited the Ernest Hemingway Home and Museum in Key West, I noticed this chart in the gift shop featuring all the Hemingway women. I took a photo of it because I love the caption above his head that reads “Mistakes Were Made” (ha!) and also as a reminder that I really should learn more about all these women. I believe that the company you keep says a lot about who you are, and as a big Hemingway fan I’d like to read up on these women to gain further insight into the man himself.
