A Duel of Bulls: Hemingway and Welles in Love and War
Cover for A Duel of Bulls: Hemingway and Welles in Love and War by Pete Carvill
It’s been a long time in the works but my next book, A Duel of Bulls: Hemingway and Welles in Love and War, will be released on 10 April.
The book is a mostly true, entirely entertaining, account of the intertwining lives of two of the twentieth century’s most-celebrated artists, beginning in 1932 in Spain and then travelling across Cuba, London, France, Germany, and the US, before pulling into the cold hills of Idaho as Ernest Hemingway’s life comes to its end.
According to Biteback, my publishers: “Lyrical, and unafraid to take liberties when faced with the difficulties of conveying the lives and careers of two legendary self-mythologizers, A Duel of Bulls is a remarkable account of one of twentieth century art’s most unlikely of friendships.”
