Publisher's Synopsis
Definitely, Ballester has successfully told us the story of his childhood years and his friends of the time, in their experiences with one of the towering figures of universal literature: American writer Ernest Hemingway. And I use the term "successfully" because he managed to spontaneously add a human dimension to an intellectual who won a Nobel Literature Prize. The author of this book not only narrated his experiences with this famous writer from whose estate, in the company of his homeboys, he snatched and savored juicy mangoes. Ballester also opened the doors of our minds when he revealed a good father-and-son relationship through his intimate bonds with his dad. Life lessons can be found in this unique book. In its final pages, this piece shows graphic illustrations of parts of its story. Pedro Pablo Pérez Santiesteban (AWA) Publicaciones Entre Líneas
