I heard that when they were all in the Left Bank Club, or whatever they called it, Hemingway showed Ezra Pound a manuscript of a novel or story. Pound promptly went through it, crossing out all the adjectives and adverbs and then gave it back to Hemingway, who got it published, and who ever after wrote without using adjectives and adverbs.
Is there any truth to this? Any good stories about that group are also appreciated.
thank you
love
