5/5/1964		Palin's Chair at Hemingway's Feast On this day in 1964 Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast was published; and on this day in 1943 Michael Palin, author of Hemingway's Chair and author-guide of Hemingway Adventure, was born. Palin says that he was first inspired by Hemingway as a teenager, and first disappointed: "Unfortunately, in the late 1950s there wasn't much call for provincial English schoolboys to carry mortars up Spanish hillsides, and though I had a goldfish I hadn't fought for seven hours to land it."
