Biography of Lewis Galantère, American writer, critic, literary translator, and friend to many of the Lost Generation, including Hemingway, Pound, and Stein. Chronicles Galantière's sometimes turbulent friendship with Hemingway during the 1920s, beginning with their initial 1921 meeting in Paris when Galantière assisted the newly arrived Hemingways in finding an apartment. Covers Hemingway's ambivalent attitude towards Galantière and Galantière's reviews of Hemingway's work. Draws extensively on correspondence and includes a 1964 previously unpublished letter from Hadley to Galantière on his positive review of A Moveable Feast. Features extensive notes, selected bibliography, and index. References to Hemingway throughout.
