Love and Ruin. I didn’t enjoy this as much as the Paris Wife. It was too long and too repetitive.

Love and Ruin. Another book which was hard to put down.

LOVE AND RUIN. PORTRAIT of a WRITER as a HEMINGWAY WIFE Paula McClain is an archaeologist who carefully sifts through the relics of Hemingway marriages. LOVE AND RUIN, her second such foray after THE PARIS WIFE, reveals the complex life of Martha Gellhorn, famous war correspondent and Papa’s only spouse brave enough to leave him. She was his third of four wives. TORTURED INSECURITY McClain paints Gellhorn as a young woman beset by insecurities, the end of an affair with a married man, and the loss of a father who never fully accepts her. She is ripe for a tortured relationship with Ernest, which she enters with eyes wide open. WRITING AS HAPPINESS Insecurity informs her writing too, which she sublimates to her relationships — a clearly accepted choice at the time, although one that troubles her, as she knows writing is essential to her happiness. WAR STORIES Gellhorn feels compelled to tell the stories she witnesses in Spain, Germany and Finland of Everyman in war ... and of Everywoman and child as well. In doing so, she fulfills a deep sense of purpose. This gives her the courage to eventually move out of her husband’s suffocating shadow into her own light. LOVELY VALENTINE Although the story takes time to root, McClain woos us from the start with her gorgeous descriptive writing. I highly recommend this Portrait of a Writer as a Young Woman, McClain’s lovely Valentine to the gutsy Martha Gellhorn.
