Hemingway and the Human Voice

Fockner mentioned to one class that hemingway quote unquote lacked courage. News of this remark made its way into an article published in the new york herald tribune. He found the remark about his lack of courage distressing and asked his friend brigadier general ct lannam to tell him about hemingway's actual performance under fire during the war fockner responded immediately without taking back what he had said or clarifying the context of his remarks. i believe for years that the human voice has caused all human ills and i thought i had broken myself of talking maybe this will be my valedictory lesson, says Fockner.
