To Have and Have Not (Scribner Classics)

To Have and Have Not (Scribner Classics) - Ernest Hemingway You would think that it would be difficult to have a depressing story set in the warm and sunny Florida Keys, but this Hemingway novel manages to do it. Henry Morgan's life goes from bleak to bleaker. Set during the Depression, Morgan makes some dicey choices trying to earn enough money for his family to survive. And of course, there are lots of scenes fishing off the Keys. Hemingway at his grittiest.
