Reseña del editor

Russian spies, Spanish fascists, and Hemingway sipping mojitos in Madrid. Somewhere between the genres of biography and historical fiction lies Stephen Koch's new book, The Breaking Point: Hemingway, Dos Passos, and the Murder of Jose Robles. In the midst of the Spanish Civil War, literary and political intrigues surround the lives of two famous authors as they experience a chain of events that will mark them forever. Koch's work provokes some surprisingly profound and pertinent questions: What propaganda does the youth of today champion? What movements are we, as a society, on the verge of that we cannot see? History and biography can be elegantly organized, but the present remains messy.
