Dear Reader,
I, for one, cannot wait to read these. Apparently there were more alternate (re: re-written) endings to A Farewell To Arms than Hemingway admitted to. My favorite little poke in this article is:

Also, here's a link to an interview Papa did in 1958 for the Paris Review: It's classic. Read it. You'll be glad you did.
