Manuscript study. Examines how the 1930s rebellion against Cuban dictator Gerardo Machado serves as background for To Have and Have Not, especially the unpublished fourth part, and contributes to the novel’s themes of revolution and oppression. Concludes with a discussion of Hemingway’s struggle to excise his personal political views from his writing.
