'Whisking us from jazz-age Paris to post-war Cuba via 1930s Florida, Naomi Wood's sparkling novel explores the loves and losses of Hemingway's wives . . . vividly rendered, touchingly universal' Sunday Express In the dazzling summer of 1926, Ernest Hemingway and his wife Hadley travel from their home in Paris to a villa in the south of France. They swim, play bridge and drink gin. But wherever they go they are accompanied by the glamorous and irrepressible Fife. Fife is Hadley's best friend. She is also Ernest's lover . . . Hadley is the first Mrs. Hemingway, but neither she nor Fife will be the last. Over the ensuing decades, as each marriage is ignited by passion and deceit, four extraordinary women will learn what it means to love - and lose - the most famous writer of his generation. 'Luminous, intoxicating . . . full of betrayals and moments of heartbreaking intimacy' Marie Claire 'Richly imagined and emotionally wise . . . sensitive and moving' Daily Telegraph 'So beautifully written, so true and so vivid that it eclipses anything strictly biographical' Daily Mail

'Mrs. Hemingway is so beautifully written, and evocative, that I could not put it down until the last page.' – Jojo Moyes, author of Me Before You.
