Ring in the season with One True Podcast! Hemingway Review editor Suzanne del Gizzo joins us on our holiday show for the second year in a row. For this episode, we discuss Hemingway\u2019s charming 1923 article for the Toronto Daily Star, \u201cChristmas on the Roof of the World,\u201d his chronicle of a skiing idyll in the Swiss Alps with his wife Hadley and \u201cChink\u201d Dorman-Smith.
We discuss the article\u2019s fascinating prose style, its uncharacteristic tone, and the placement of this obscure piece in Hemingway\u2019s career. Our conversation also considers Hemingway\u2019s biography in the winter of 1922-23, the setting of this skiing getaway.\xa0
As a bonus, del Gizzo offers up her \u201cone true sentence\u201d from \u201c"Big Two-Hearted River" to round out the episode. Also, enjoy a musical performance by University of Evansville students Kate Maue, Alyssa DeCorrevont, and Rachel Taylor.\xa0
