Ernest Hemingway’s Death Anniversary
He did not sleep all night. He was tired of enduring the shocks of ECT. He had many suspicions that the electro-shocks were causing his memory loss. He was constantly being monitored by the FBI and was suspected of having connections with Marxists.
In the early spring of 1961, he attempted suicide but survived. His father also committed suicide.
Ernest Hemingway shot himself with a shotgun on the morning of July 2, 1961. The great writer of the 20th century, who created masterpieces of novels and fiction, in which we see determination and courage and the constant effort to live, the same great writer committed suicide.
Some say he didn’t have a heart for Oak Park. He missed Cuba. He missed the cafe and the boat in Havana. In his sixty-two years of life, he won the Nobel Prize for Literature and many other major awards.
He participated in many wars. Some say he was the first casualty of the First World War. He was hit by bullets, his eyesight was affected and he served as a driver in an ambulance for war casualties.
His popular epics Big Two Hearted Rivers and The Killers still hold the highest standards in fiction today. Hemingway’s novel "Old Man and the Sea" reveals the constant struggle of life. Apart from this, The sun also rises and Farewell to arms do not need any introduction. The film on the life of Ernest Hemingway is related to watching Hemingway and Gellhorn. Apart from this, his great novel The Old Man and The Sea has also been filmed.
The writer who said "Man is not born to defeat" chose the path of suicide for himself.
I have saved some things from Ernest Hemingway’s novels, come and read and remember this great writer:
"What have you got to eat?" asked the boy
"A bowl of yellow rice and fish. Would you like to eat something?"
"No, I will eat at home. Light a fire?" said the boy
"No! I'll burn it later or eat the rice cold." said the old man
"Should I take a small net?"
"Of course," said the old man.
There was no net and the boy remembered when he had sold it. But he repeated the story every day. There was no bowl of rice and fish and the boy knew it.
--------
"He realized how much more enjoyable it was to talk in the presence of another than to just talk to himself and the sea."
--------
Losing yourself in someone's overwhelming love and forgetting that you are important. The most painful thing is immortal.
--------
How did he live and with what courage did he live, in fact this is what distinguishes him from others, otherwise you are the death of all.
-------
"Bed is a best friend when you lose"
-------
"Why do old people wake up so early in the morning? To make the day longer?"
"Maybe I'm not as tough as I think, but I know a lot of tricks and I have solutions."
He thought that one should not be lonely in old age.
