Abstract
This essay examines Ernest Hemingway’s recollections of the airplane crashes and rescues during his second African safari in articles for Look magazine. These articles present a man in denial concerning the physical and psychological effects of his injuries. The essay analyzes Hemingway’s accounts of the story and compares them a version obtained in an interview with Gino Abreo, son of the man who rescued the Hemingways.
