Date: 2017-01-10 07:56 pm (UTC)Yeah, I am not surprised to hear that some people worship him - my first half hour on Key West had me wondering why so many men seemed to do their best to look like Henry Jones Sr (as played by Sean Connery) minus the glasses, until we went to Sloppy Joe's and I realized that they were all doing their best to look like HEMINGWAY. :D
Apparently there is a Hemingway look-alike contest in Key West every year. I dunno, I really like Victor Hugo even though my high school teachers did their best to make him unpalatable to everyone (it took me decades to realize he was a truly gorgeous writer with a great sense of humor and an uncanny ability to write amazing gothic scenes)... and yet I have never seen anyone try to LOOK LIKE Victor Hugo. Write like him, sure. Look like him... nope.
