Ta tête est coincée dans le cul = Your head is up your arse.
Ok. I thought that was an English expression.

The problem with lost worlds is the world of jacket making has moved on but like his dated website he has not.
In all fairness they are well made quality jackets but things are not the same now as back then when most of us wanted the heaviest weight horsehide we could get. I get that some want MC jackets in particular that are heavyweight but I will confine myself to flight jackets.
You can buy a capeskin A-1 from headwind for $ 650
You can buy a Platon Dubow for $532
And you would have spent $43 less the buying the less authentic Lost Worlds Dubow or A-1 both of which are $1225

Mine also, not a novel but Hemingway at his best writing from experiences.The old Man and the Sea is my favourite fishing related book.
Hemingway was a pioneer with his short simple sentence-style he developed writing about his life experiences. Unfortunately, was quite the chad who finally blew his brains out because he could not confront his alcoholism.Lions and tigers and bears are pretty scary but nothing on land compares to this insta-death stuff the oceans have.
Mine too. I was obsessed with that book for a good year after I re-read it. They give us all this stuff to read at school when we know nothing about anything or at least I personally was an idiot who didn't know nothing about life, which is what the book is about (don't mean it's an allegory or nothing, just that it's about how things turn out) so of course I didn't get it. Then I read it again later and man, what a beautiful thing it is...
Same as when I couldn't even finish reading Anna Karenina in school because I thought it's freaking boring with all the grownup stuff happening and then later on it became my favorite book in the world. Coincidentally, at the time I decided to read the book again which happened by mere accident, I had my own Anna thing going in life on so the timing couldn't have been any better. Or worse. Either way, it was nice.
that shark's attitude is survival just like us humans and like us their meat-eaterI hate that shark's attitude.
It triggered me badly
I want them in my soup and in my cat's food.

After further research, I agree with you. Hemingway suffered from acute pain due and back-to-back plane crashes from a car crash. He most likely suffered from a mental illness inherited from his father who shot himself in the head with a revolver.That's a bit simplistic, or was that a Hemingway style pared-back explanation? It was more likely depression and mental illness that led to alcohol misuse, as is so often the case. Self-medication like this is common. A lot of great American authors had this issue, from Faulkner to Fitzgerald, Mailer to Capote. I never much liked Hemingway and preferred the real father of the simple pared back sentences, Jack London - who influenced Hemingway and was also a hard drinking man who died of an overdose. Don't be a 20th century writer...
