A WRITERS LIFE There is on Facebook pictures of dead film stars like Elisabeth Taylor, who was born in London and photos of her childhood. I don´t really care about this. We should remember her as a great actress, see her movies and shut up. Then we have Ernest Hemingway, who is one of me favourite writers, alas, he often appears in the picture of his life, not so much about his writing, more about his adventures, which I do not care to read about. Dos Passos, another great writer, lived a smaller amount of daring-do, but he surpassed Hemingway in his say, The Bridge over San Louis Ray”, not to forget John Steinbeck, Theodore Dreiser and William Faulkner. I like American writes, pre-word processor, and now they are going mad producing toms of too many words. The thing is this. I don´t want to know about their childhood.
