Ernest Hemingway stars in three interconnecting short stories in this graphic novel. Paris, 1925. Our story begins when Hemingway meets Athos, the last Musketeer,and they travel to Spain' s Pamplona for the fiesta. Paris, 1944. The day after the liberation of Paris when Hemingway, now a war correspondent, decide to parachute into Germany to end the war. Cuba, late 1950s. Our literary lion is in his twilight years, writing his memoirs, remembering his first and second meeting with the seemingly immortal Athos. Mixing fact and fiction, Jason has recreated one of America' s greatest writers.
Jason delivers an at times whimsical but overwhelmingly melancholic portrait, revealing reverence and sympathy for Hemingway without ignoring the author' s shortcomings. One of the best releases of 2021. -- "Library Journal (starred review)" Mixing fact and fiction, no other artist has had as much fun or provided as much insight into the Hemingway mythos as Jason. --Robert K. Elder, Hemingway in Comics Jason continues to be one of the best cartoonists working anywhere. -- "Publishers Weekly" The Norwegian artist who goes by the single name Jason is the most deadpan comedian in comics. -- "The New York Times" Unlike traditional literature, comix, and particularly Jason' s simple style, allow the reader to fully move into the space provided. Slowly, but altogether too fast, you look back and see an entire book, and an entire life, has gone past. -- "Time Magazine"
Jason hails from Oslo, Norway, but currently resides in Montpellier, France. He' s won multiple Eisners, a Harvey, and an Inkpot award.
