Ah, Ernest Hemingway. Ya either love him or hate him. I happen to be a lover. His books have been a comfort to me during my darkest days, and I’ll always be grateful for that. Every so often, I check out Etsy for the latest Hemingway-inspired gifts, as if I need more prints and pillows and shirts to let the world know he’s my fave. Perhaps you need them, too.
