Mrs. Hemingway

‘Mrs. Hemingway is so beautifully written, and evocative, that I could not put it down until the last page’ – Jojo Moyes, author of Me Before You

One world-famous writer. Four extraordinary women.

The South of France, 1926. Hadley and Ernest Hemingway are enjoying all the glamorous pleasures life has to offer. Between cool drinks and boiling sunshine, they make their names as the glittering centre of brightest young things of the Jazz era. But accompanying Hadley is her best friend, Fife, who has fallen into the orbit of young writer, Mr. Hemingway. She isn’t the first, and she won’t be the last . . .

Hadley, Fife, Martha and Mary – each are brilliant, singular, and powerful women. Over the course of many decades, filled with desire, deception and scandal, each will be united by a common title: Mrs. Hemingway.

An exquisite retelling of a legendary life through the women who knew him, Naomi Wood’s Mrs Hemingway is a stunningly rich exploration of commitment, freedom, and passion.
