To Cuba, for Cigars and Hemmingway

Another Hemmingway story surfaced. The estate refuses to allow its publication, so unless I or you or several of us can come up with with the $20,000 its expected to fetch at auction, we'll never see it.

Except of course, that a country like Cuba could publish the work, since the United States refuses to trade dollars for cigars or cleaning ladies, they have nothing to lose from printing the story. Indeed, the gray area of copyright law is always where the law does not exist [like the backwaters of China].

So print it in Cuba and let me buy black market copies on ebay, mofo. Buyakasha.
