Boxing with Hemingway

By D.H. Robbins

How much must a writer sacrifice of himself for the ghost of his genius? Quentin Flynn moved from Greenwich Village to Paris on a quest for a talent that had seemingly eluded him through his feckless, yet successful career as a pulp novelist. Through his search to find a new literary style, he finds Sarah Feldman, a painter and commercial artist. She is at first a kindred spirit, but then becomes his muse-not so much for his writing, but for something else lacking in his life: how to feel love. He reaches his bottom to finally realize that he had been competing only with himself. As Quentin attempts to climb from the abyss of his self-doubts, Sarah retreats into a discovery of her own through her hidden affection for Hannah, a successful artist in Vienna.

Set during the Jazz Age from 1925-1929, "Boxing with Hemingway" begins in the artsy Montparnasse district in Paris, a haven for struggling local and ex-patriot artists and writers. The story journeys through cameos of Vienna, Berlin, Florence, and Hollywood. Quentin brushes shoulders with Gertrude Stein, Ernest Hemingway, F Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Director Tod Browning, and Isadora Duncan, among others.

Autoren-Porträt von D. H. Robbins

David (D.H.) Robbins, a former publications art director, has co-authored two media design books, "Motion by Design" (Lawrence King, 2007), and "Visual Effects Artistry" (Elsevier Press, 2009). He has written three novels, "The Tu-Tone DeSoto (2014) ," "The Reverend" (2017), and "The Weight of Indifference (2020)," a trilogy set in the 1960s. "Boxing with Hemingway" is the first in another planned trilogy set in Europe and Hollywood from the 1920s to the postwar 40s. These novels are loosely based on the writing life and struggles of his grandfather, Clarence "Tod" Robbins, who was considered a contemporary of Hemingway in the mid-twenties.Robbins has also produced a five-part lecture series, "The 1960s-Revisiting a Crucial Decade," which he delivers locally. He has taught learning module design, and a fiction-writing course/workshop, and now facilitates a casual, monthly writer's discussion group on Zoom. Among his other interests are horseback riding, photography, graphic design, and history of motion pictures. He lives in Simsbury, CT. with his wife, Kate, and his cat, Barney and his Cavalier King Charles spaniel, Gypsy.
