The Untold Story of Hemingway in Revolutionary Cuba (Melville House), which will be released this Tuesday in the U.S., is the result of an investigation carried out by Feldman on the island following orders from the 1954 Nobel Prize for Literature: If you want to be a writer, you must be able to &#8220;walk in the shoes&#8221; of another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feldman was fortunate to be the first foreigner to have access to the archives of Finca Vig\u00eda, Hemingway\u2019s home on the outskirts of Havana, now converted into a museum, and he remained in Cuba from 2008 to 2010.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main theme of the book is Hemingway&#8217;s relationship with Cuba, a country he visited for the first time in 1928 and in which he resided in the 1940s and 1950s.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_199589\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-199589\" style=\"width: 1023px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-199589\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1023\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1.jpg 1023w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1-768x769.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/files-of-ernest-hemingway-in-cuba-1-750x751.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1023px) 100vw, 1023px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-199589\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ernest Hemingway in Cuba. Photo: Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feldman, who recalls that when Hemingway received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954 he defined himself as a &#8220;citizen of Coj\u00edmar,&#8221; a municipality a few kilometers from Havana, said he developed a genuine empathy, respect and friendship with the Cuban people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the interview with EFE, Feldman stressed that when the Revolution triumphed in 1959, the U.S. government told Hemingway he had to denounce it and leave Cuba, but he did not do it because he said his job was to write, not politics, and because Cuba was his home and the Cuban people were his friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of his Cuban friends was Enrique Serpa (1900-1968), winner of the Cuban National Prize for Novel in 1938 and whom Hemingway considered a &#8220;prodigy,&#8221; according to Martha Gellhorn, the writer&#8217;s third wife, in a letter to his editor, Max Perkins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feldman says it would not be &#8220;fair&#8221; to say that what Hemingway did with &#8220;Aletas de tibur\u00f3n&#8221; and &#8220;La aguja,&#8221; two works by Serpa which had a &#8220;notable influence&#8221; on The Old Man and the Sea (1952), was plagiarism.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He said it would be difficult to identify an artist worthy of praise who has not found inspiration in other works of art.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In his opinion, Hemingway did not &#8220;copy&#8221; Serpa, but learned a lot from the stories of the Cuban, who had a talent comparable to his and &#8220;a very elaborate, powerful and expressive prose.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After reading both carefully, Feldman still wonders how it is possible that Hemingway became so famous and rich throughout his life and Serpa died relatively unknown and earning very little for his work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The researcher and his wife, Yelani Reyes Le\u00f3n, a Spanish teacher in New Orleans, intend to do everything possible to ensure that Contrabando, Serpa&#8217;s major work, is translated into English and published in the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_199590\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-199590\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-199590\" src=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1-273x300.jpg 273w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1-768x843.jpg 768w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1-933x1024.jpg 933w, https:\/\/oncubanews.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/eh1963n-1-750x824.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-199590\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ernest Hemingway in bed.
