Talk:West with the Night

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The fact that a subsequent submission by Beryl Markham was rejected does not mean that she did not write "West with the Night".

How many author's submissions have been rejected by publishers?

...and how could she do better than telling her own story?

More proof and less inuendo please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.210.232.62 (talk) 20:05, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the question of authorship is notable in the history of the book. It has affected the popularity of the book and been a topic in two subsequent biographies of Beryl Markham. Perhaps it shouldn't have and should not affect its popularity, but it did. --ssd (talk) 15:33, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Verify Hemingway Quote?

[edit]

The Hemingway quote needs verification. As it is, it appears simply to have been copied from the book's back cover. Perhaps the letter has been published somewhere, or exists in a collection?
