Show detail Hide detail

Ted Allan speaks with an unidentified woman who asks him to tell a story about Ernest Hemingway. He says that he did not like Hemingway as a person. Allan sets the scene for some stories about Hemingway by giving some background about how he ended up in Spain at the age of 20. Allan was serving with the International Brigade and speaks briefly about his work with Dr. Norman Bethune. Allan met Hemingway in Spain during the civil war. One of the reasons Allan did not like Hemingway is that Hemingway made an anti-Semitic remark to him, not knowing that Allan was Jewish. Another reason he gives is that Hemingway was not very supportive of Allan's writing. At the time, Allan was a stringer for the Associated Press and the Federated Press, the latter a news service for several trade union papers. At a gathering of war correspondents at which Allan and Hemingway were present, another writer read a story to the acclaim of the group. The group thought it was by Hemingway, but when the writers found out it was by Allan, their reaction became lukewarm. Hemingway asked to read some of Allan's stories and after he had read them he told Allan "I don't think I have too much to worry about".
