  Ernest Hemingway was born in Oak Park, Illinois, on July 21, 1899. He served in World War I as an ambulance driver on the Italian front; he was wounded and decorated. After the war, he worked as a journalist before settling in Paris, where he met Gertrude Stein and Ezra Pound, who shaped his literary voice. His prose was terse, his sentences short, and his stories of men and their battles with nature, with love, with their own souls. Hemingway wrote many novels and short stories: "The Sun Also Rises," "A Farewell to Arms," "For Whom the Bell Tolls," and "The Old Man and the Sea," for which he received the Pulitzer Prize. He lived in Key West, Cuba, and Idaho, always in pursuit of the perfect sentence, the true experience. 
  He married four times, loved deeply, and fought hard against his inner demons. Hemingway's life was marked by adventure, war, hunting, fishing, and an unyielding quest for authenticity. In 1954, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. On July 2, 1961, in Ketchum, Idaho, he ended his life with a shotgun. His works endure, capturing the essence of a man facing the world, striving for grace under pressure. 
  Frank Marcopolos lives in Florida with his dog, Sparky.

  The Mystery of Edwin Drood is the final novel by Charles Dickens, originally published in 1870.
  Though the novel is named after the character Edwin Drood, it focuses more on Drood's uncle, John Jasper, a precentor, choirmaster and opium addict, who is lusting after his pupil, Rosa Bud. Miss Bud, Edwin Drood's fiancée, has also caught the eye of the high-spirited and hot-tempered Neville Landless. Landless and Edwin Drood take an instant dislike to each other. Later Drood disappears under mysterious circumstances. The story is set in Cloisterham, a lightly disguised Rochester.
  Upon the death of Dickens on 9 June 1870, the novel was left unfinished, only six of a planned twelve instalments having been written. He left no detailed plan for the remaining instalments or solution to the novel's mystery, and many later adaptations and continuations by other writers have attempted to complete the story.
