Book Overview

by Casey Robinson (Author)

"IT MAY BE THE DAWNING OF SUSPICION, BUT THE FACT THAT THE AIRPLANE IS FASTER THAN THE HORSE, DOES NOT NECESSARILY PROVE THAT THE WORLD IS GETTING ANY BETTER." - HARRY STREET, THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO

This beautifully designed book edition of the Oscar-nominated The Snows of Kilimanjaro is adapted from the original 1952 film screenplay by Casey Robinson, based on the 1936 short story of the same name by Ernest Hemingway. Directed by Henry King, this Amerfican Technicolor romantic adventure film stars Gregory Peck, Susan Hayward, and Ava Gardner.

When the writer, Harry Street (Peck) is gravely wounded in a hunting accident in Africa, he feverishly recalls his failures in love and in writing. He reflects on his loss of his one true love, Cynthia Green Gardner), due to his obsession for roaming the world in search of stories for his novels. Although she is dead, Cynthia continues to haunt Harry's thoughts.

Street feels he has compromised his talent to ensure the success of his books, and feels he is a failure, despite his achievement of having one successful novel after another.

His neglected wife Helen (Hayward) attends to his wounds, listens to his ranting, puts up with his talk of lost loves, and encourages him to fight to survive until help arrives. Her commitment and devotion to him makes Street finally understand that he is not a failure. He realizes that he can have the love and happiness he desires with Helen and he regains his will to live.
