Mariel Hemingway is working with MindStir Media, a leading book publisher in LA, on her new book club idea named Mariel Hemingway’s Book Club. Like Oprah’s Book Club, Mariel will use her book club to highlight books that she loves. Mariel running a book club is an ideal fit; after all, her Hemingway surname is one of the most recognizable in the literary world. She is the granddaughter of the award-winning and celebrated novelist Ernest Hemingway.
“It’s been a dream of mine to have a book club for quite some time and now with MindStir’s help it’s happening,” said Mariel Hemingway. “I’m excited to share books that I think deserve attention,” she added.
Mariel has already made two 2023 selections for Mariel Hemingway’s Book Club. The first book is Hemingway’s Daughter, an Amazon bestseller by Christine M. Whitehead. “I really loved this book for its heart, its glimpses of Hemingway history, and for a truly creative reimagining of Hemingway lore,” said Mariel Hemingway. Hemingway’s Daughter centers on Finn Hemingway, the fictional daughter of Ernest Hemingway, as she pursues a career as a female lawyer in an era when it’s frowned upon.
The second book that Mariel Hemingway selected is The Adventures of Amber: Walk in the Woods by Isabell Hayden, a 7-year-old Amazon bestselling author who wrote the book to celebrate the beauty of nature and inspire others to spend time outdoors. “The Adventures of Amber will be a great addition to your child’s home library, and it will certainly be enjoyed by everyone else at home as well,” Mariel Hemingway stated enthusiastically.
Mariel Hemingway is an Oscar-nominated actress with over sixty acting credits (including Manhattan and Superman IV) as well as a best-selling author of six books. She was co-executive producer of the Emmy-nominated Running From Crazy, a rich and evocative documentary about the Hemingway family, in collaboration with Oprah Winfrey.
