Written in a hurry and published in pieces, it tells the story of Harry Morgan, a tough, disillusioned boat captain who runs contraband between Cuba and Key West, Florida, during the 1930s.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"ds-markdown-paragraph\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003eHarry starts as a legitimate charter fisherman, but when the rich tourists fail to show up and his family faces starvation, he turns to smuggling rum, then Chinese immigrants, then revolutionaries. He is beaten, robbed, and left without an arm. His wife tries to hold things together. Harry becomes harder, meaner, more willing to kill. The novel shifts perspectives, introducing a cast of characters—wealthy tourists, leftist intellectuals, corrupt officials—who float through Harry's world, taking what they want and leaving wreckage behind.

The novel was pieced together from two previously published short stories and additional material written quickly to meet a publisher's deadline. Critics have often dismissed it as Hemingway's weakest novel, but it remains a fascinating document of its time—raw, uneven, and fierce. Hemingway won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953 and the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. He died by suicide in 1961 and is buried in Ketchum, Idaho.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casa Carlini","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":54581827469684,"sku":null,"price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54581827502452,"sku":null,"price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":54581827535220,"sku":null,"price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":54581827567988,"sku":null,"price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/5561\/6884\/files\/casa-carlini-simple-audiobook-to-have-and-have-not-53743917498740.png?v=1779965593","url":"https:\/\/casacarlini.com\/products\/to-have-and-have-not","provider":"Casa Carlini","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
