Have you read Hemmingway before? If yes, has this memoir affected how you read his fiction? If you haven't read his works before, does the memoir make you want to read his fiction?

The Sun Also Rises
The Snows of Kilimanjaro and Other Stories
both of which I enjoyed a lot.
There was a long break between reading Old man + The Sun, and for some reason I wasn't sure that I would like his style of writing - obviously I was paying too much attention to reviews(!). Anyhow, it turns out I am a big fan. I don't think this memoir will affect how I read his fiction (in the future); although it was very interesting to read about his process of learning the craft of writing.
