Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The basis for the forties film classic starring Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, To Have and Have Not is the dramatic, brutal story of Harry Morgan and his shady efforts to keep his family at least on the crest of the "have nots" by running contraband between Key West and Cuba. Harshly realistic, yet with one of the most subtle and moving relationships in the Hemingway oeuvre, it goes beyond high adventure. As The Times [London] Literary Supplement observed, "Hemingway's gift for dialogue, for effective understatement, and for communicating such emotions the tough allow themselves, has never been more conspicuous."
