Merriam Press Fiction Series. A dark, sad, comedic, fictional account of a man who believes he is the reincarnation of Ernest Hemingway. "Ernest Miller Hemingway was born on July 21, 1899, in Oak Park, Ill., a suburb of Chicago. Hemingway died on July 2, 1961, at his home in Ketchum, Idaho, from a self-inflicted wound to the head. "I was born on May 2, 1962, in Oak Lawn, Ill., a suburb of Chicago, exactly 10 months to the day after Hemingway's death. "My name is Edsel Michael Hunter.

I suppose I was doomed from the start, as the very word 'Edsel' became a popular symbol for failure in American society, and I was destined to be its poster child. "I have a confession to make. For better or worse, I am the reincarnation of the great twentieth century American writer, Ernest Hemingway. You may not believe it, but I know it's true. And, no, I am not insane..."
