Beschreibung:
Martha Gellhorn was born in 1908 in St Louis Missouri, the perfect place for a travel writer she felt, because people were always trying to get away from it. She died at the age of 89 in London having reported on almost every conflict from the Spanish Civil War to the disintegration of Yugoslavia. In her late 80s she researched and wrote an excoriating expose of the evils perpetrated on South American street children. Gellhorn wanted to be remembered as a novelist and wrote 11 books of fiction, and only three non-fiction books.
The closest thing we have to an autobiography by the veteran war reporter, who reports from China, East Africa and the Soviet Union, and also offers an hilarious description of her second husband and unwilling travelling companion Ernest Hemmingway. New edition.
