A Moveable Feast

Think of the role of cafés in the novel. Why are cafés significant to Hemingway? How do they symbolize growth and change?

Hemingway popularized what is termed the Iceberg Theory, where one can omit an element of the plot and still have that element motivate characters. Where do we see Hemingway apply this theory in A Moveable Feast?

What is the role of horseracing in the book? How does it relate to other major themes, such as hunger and the seasons? Think about what Hemingway means by “a false spring.”
