Here, amidst the swirling smoke of jazz clubs and the heady aroma of espresso, they found inspiration, and were drawn to the city's magnetic allure like moths to a flame.Hemingway will tell you of his contemporaries and friends. F. Scott Fitzgerald, the embodiment of the Jazz Age, whose pen painted vivid portraits of excess and disillusionment. Gertrude Stein, the indomitable patron of the arts, whose salon became a sanctuary for aspiring writers and avant-garde thinkers. And Ezra Pound, the enigmatic poet and mentor, whose guidance shaped the literary landscape of the 20th century.Hemingway would sit for hours at the iconic cafés and bars of Montparnasse and the Latin Quarter, penning his thoughts.
