Ernest Hemingway's Final Years...

...recalled by his friend and biographer, A.E. Hotchner, in a New York Times op/ed.

Hotchner reveals a man justifiably paranoid concerning FBI surveillance and anguished over the effects of aging on his writing and his virility.

Sad to read but doesn't particularly cover any new ground. I hadn't realized that Hotchner was still alive at this late date (he was born in 1920).
