The Chicago Tribune notes today that July 2 will mark the 50th anniversary of the death of Ernest Hemingway--which the various Hemingway sights--his home in Key West, his birthplace in Oak Park, Illinois, and Seney, Michigan, where the Nick Adams "Big-Two Hearted River" story was set--are eying with trepidation. Hemingway committed suicide at his Idaho home in 1961--which was something a "Hemingway hero" would never do--rather, he would accept his fate.
