Chicago, 1920: Hadley Richardson is a shy twenty-eight-year-old who
has all but given up on love and happiness when she meets Ernest
Hemingway and is captivated by his energy, intensity and burning
ambition to write. After a whirlwind courtship and wedding, the
pair set sail for France. But glamorous Jazz Age Paris, full of
artists and writers, fuelled by alcohol and gossip, is no place for
family life and fidelity. Ernest and Hadley's marriage begins to
founder, and the birth of a beloved son serves only to drive them
further apart. Then, at last, Ernest's ferocious literary
endeavours begin to bring him recognition - not least from a woman
intent on making him her own . . .
