| adam_text | In
1996
René
Villarreal returned to Cuba
to retrieve his memoir of his life with
Ernest Hemingway at the
Finca Vigía.
Sadly, he learned that the manuscript
and photographs had been lost.
Determined to tell his story, Villarreal,
together with his son
Raúl,
set about
rewriting the account of how he came
to be Ernest Hemingway s majordomo,
confidant, and friend
—
his Cuban son.
Hemingway, called El Americano
by the Cubans, moved into the
Finca
Vigía,
an estate outside of Havana, in
1939.
He allowed the village children
to play on his property, and they soon
became fixtures, caring for his pets,
performing odd jobs, and running
errands. Hemingway recognized
René
as especially responsible and attentive
and made him household manager, or
majordomo, in
1946
when
René
was
only seventeen.
For the next fifteen years,
René
ran
the
Finca,
tending to Hemingway and
his wife, Mary, and their visiting family
and distinguished guests. Villarreal s
clear recollections offer up humorous
stories of escapades and adventures
with Hemingway as well as insightful
comments on the writer s work habits,
moods, passions, and friendships. He
also writes of Cuba before and after the
revolution, capturing so well the sense
of place and time.
Scholars and readers of Hemingway
worldwide will be caught up in this
compelling story of a great friendship and
will find insight into this complicated,
fascinating, brilliant writer.

the terrace at the
Finca Vigía
where they were photo¬
graphed with Papa Hemingway in
/957.
Rene Villarreal now lives in Union City,
New Jersey, after moving from Cuba in
1972.
His son
Raúl
Villarreal is an artist
and currently lives in Verona, New Jersey.
