it seems like everytime Hemingway comes up, a relative tells me about a story he read 40 years ago or more, in which there is much discussion of the hot temperatures, and the fat women in a bus station. He’s never found it again, and its very possible he has some of the details wrong. Anyone got a suggestion for which story that might be?
