When Michael Palin was researching his novel Hemingway's Chair his
interest was stimulated by Hemingway's appetite for travel and
'Papa's' evocations of the places he knew. In pursuit of
Hemmingway, Palin begins at the beginning, in Oak Park, Idaho, then
travels to Italy where Hemingway served in the Ambulance Brigade in
the First World War. Then on to Paris in the 'Roaring Twenties',
bull-running at Pamplona and Hemingway's love affair with Spain.
Hemingway became disillusioned and returned to the States, where he
lived on Kay West in Florida before moving to Sun Valley, Idaho,
until the Spanish civil war recalled him.
