  • A William Faulkner
  • B Ernest Hemingway
  • C John Steinbeck
  • D Evelyn Waugh
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

From Rick Lyman’s 1998 obituary for Martha Gellhorn in The Times:

Ms. Gellhorn was a cocky, raspy-voiced maverick who saw herself as a champion of ordinary people trapped in conflicts created by the rich and powerful. That she was known to many largely because of her marriage to Ernest Hemingway, from 1940 to 1945, caused her unending irritation, especially when critics tried to find parallels between her lean writing style and that of her more celebrated husband.
