About me I won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 for my novel The Old Man and the Sea and the Nobel Prize for Literature the following year.
"I'm always reading books--as many as there are. I ration myself on them so that I'll always be in supply." - from an interview with George Plimpton in The Paris Review, Spring 1958.
"He read everything.... He would have a whole group of books going at one time, eight or ten.... He would put one down and pick up another." - Tillie Arnold, family friend and author of The Idaho Hemingway.
About my library By the time of my death in 1961 I had amassed over 7400 books in my various homes. The long, long list has been input by my fans* on LT, working from the comprehensive list compiled by Dr. James D. Brasch and Dr. Joseph Sigman of McMaster University, and provided online through Boston’s John F. Kennedy Library, here. Also included in my library: the first editions of the books I authored.
A note on my favorite authors: they were added based on the information in Brasch & Sigman's introduction.

I'm happy that you owned a copy of Dazai Osamu's "Shayo" (The setting Sun). :)

Today I discovered you have more books in common with me than any other Dead Person up to now(73) and this number will certainly have grown considerably once my own library will be fully catalogued.
Apparently we share some interests. And I think you are one of the really great authors of the 20th century. That's why I would be very honoured if you would accept to become my friend.
Would you please be so kind as to transmit my thanks to the people who put your considerable library on LT?

Cast Down the Laurel by Arnold Gingrich and
Congo Song by Stuart Cloete. The Congo Song cover is particularly amazing, as it includes the copy, "Alone in a society of men on the equater, Olga Le Blanc is occupoied by here lovers, her tame gorilla and her own good looks."
I kid you not. I couldn't make that up. Believe it or not, Congo Song is not a farce or parody. I tried reading it once and had to stop after about 100 pages because it was intensely boring. Hard to believe with a title and cover like that, but there you have it. Someday I'll give it another try, just to say I did!

e le tenerezze di Zanzibar
c'era questa strada...
Oltre le illusioni di Timbuctù
e le gambe lunghe di Babalù
c'era questa strada...
Questa strada zitta che vola via
come una farfalla, una nostalgia,
nostalgia al gusto di curaçao...
...Forse un giorno meglio mi spieghero...
...Et alors, MONSIEUR HEMINGWAY,
ça va?

I think the version posted here of a book called Our Fair City (http://www.librarything.com/work/4655060) is the same book that I posted today (http://www.librarything.com/work/4825145/book/26374496), the difference being that your citation has no author listed. The Touchstone leads to your citation, which is essentially blank. Any chance you'd be willing to take a second to add the author, Robert S. Allen, so that these two would be combined?
Thanks!
Jerry
