PEGGY: I was impressed with what you said in English
class today.
MICHAEL: Gilfond's okay, except he thinks Hemingway's
great Literature.
PEGGY: You don't?
MICHAEL (contemptuously): He's a fisherman! The most
overrated writer of the century. I mean, he's the
perfect American author fat, violent, drunk...
PEGGY: Maybe you're confusing his life with his work.
MICHAEL: A writer's life is his work. Jack Kerouac
doesn't have to kill a bull to have something to write
about. He's out there feeling, burning... grooving on
life!
