Tales of Hemingway. Omar Zevallos in conversation with Xavi Ayén

Arequipa 2019, 

The graphic humourist and journalist Omar Zevallos has published Hemingway desconocido: Cuatro crónicas secretas sobre el escritor en el Perú y el mundo (2019). In this book, the author looks into some episodes in the life of the US writer that his biographers have tended to ignore: the visit that Hemingway paid to Peru in the 1950s, the supposed appearance of his ghost at Finca Vigía in Cuba, the Cuban woman with whom he kept up a secret romance and his passionate correspondence with the Hollywood diva Marlene Dietrich. Four stories, four discoveries about a life marked by excess, tragedy, love and books. He will talk to Xavi Ayén.
