Mike’s Notes & Highlights

Book cover for The Garden of Eden
The Garden of Eden by Ernest Hemingway
3 highlights
“I wish I could help.” “Nobody can help,” he said. “But I can help in other things can’t I?” He started to say there are no other things but he did not say it and instead he said, “You have and you do.”
