This book captures both the roller coaster of Hemingway's life in Cuba and the legacy of one of America’s most influential literary figures.","brand":"Lyons Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47262047142143,"sku":"9781493076611","price":32.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781493076611_s600x595.jpg?v=1776094700","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781493076611","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
