Hemingway and Vincent Van Gogh
Posted by Mark Shaw on August 16, 2009
Hey, you Hemingwaywantabes out there. If you want to read the very best in historical biography, don’t miss Lust for Life by Irving Stone. It is the heart-pounding, high-stepping, run-as-fast-as-you-can story of the one of the greatest artists in history, Vincent Van Gogh. What an amazing story, but more to the point, watch how Stone keeps the book going at a fast rate using strong word usage and a flair for the dramatic. Excellent writing all around.
