Introduction · · · · · ·
“If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go in your life, it will be with you, because Paris is a moveable feast.”
There are countless fictional and non-fictional works about Paris, and Hemingway's "moveable feast" is perhaps the most lingering and sighing one. In the 1920s, Hemingway and his new wife lived in Paris as journalists in Europe, and this book records the memories of this period of travel. However, this book was written more than 30 years later. In other words, the "scene" of the feast has long disappeared. The author and the reader are only chasing that past in their memories. Those people and things have been out of focus and deformed in the lens of time. All personal memories about Paris are mixed into a common historical memory of Paris. As the saying goes, "Paris will never end."
