Key West Episode 1 (1928-1931)

Curtis DeBerg makes his first of five podcasts from Key West. DeBerg narrates the story of the time that Hemingway and his second wife, Pauline, spent in Key West from 1928-31. Setting sail from Europe, the Hemingways stop in Havana for two days before making their way to Key West in early April 1928. The Hemingways had several temporary residences in Key West from 1928 to 1931, but they finally settled into their stately home at 907 Whitehead Street in December 1931. Their second son, Gregory, had just been born, and Ernest was beginning to get a seven-year itch (even though he and Pauline had only been married five years at the time).
