saying something to the effect of noting that Hemingway is believed to have written most of his fiction while mildly drunk; and that it works best if the reader is in a similar condition.
Perhaps this might explain why I've never liked Hemingway's writing. I've never read him while (mildly) drunk. Hmm. It'll be a while. Alcohol and pain meds are a bad combination.
