Summary

In this episode of Thick & Thin, I share four of my newest reads, as well as the story of Martha Gellhorn. An author and war correspondent, Martha is largely known for her brief marriage to Ernest Hemingway, but is responsible for much greater things than just spending some time married to a now famous author. “Why should I be a footnote in someone else’s life?” She famously said in an interview. We give her story justice today in this episode of Thick & Thin. // Follow me on IG: instagram.com/katybellotte // EPISODE SOURCES: https://www.nytimes.com/1998/02/17/arts/martha-gellhorn-daring-writer-dies-at-89.html https://www.irishtimes.com/news/in-times-of-love-and-war-1.399784 https://www.cbc.ca/radio/day6/king-tides-impeach-o-meter-frosty-at-50-lindy-west-k-pop-deaths-and-mental-health-martha-gellhorn-more-1.5384775/the-only-woman-at-d-day-what-martha-gellhorn-s-letters-reveal-about-the-trailblazing-war-correspondent-1.5384779 https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/tradition/a22109842/martha-gellhorn-career-ernest-hemingway/ Learn more about your ad choices.
