On the importance of Hemingway’s letters to Hemingway studies, focusing on his adoption of the typewriter and its effects on the shape and form of his correspondence. Allen explains the significance of retaining typographic errors and idiosyncrasies and praises the editorial practices of the current editors of the new Letters Project from Cambridge University Press for their transparency and minimalist approach.
