I mean, I agree, let’s all read more classic books, but that writer didn’t even really say why you shouldn’t read Hemingway past the age of 21 (what kid is going to understand The Sun Also Rises anyway?) I mean, I sort of understood that point when it was being made about Thomas Wolfe but not Hemingway. And I’m not a Hemingway fanatic, either.
