Ernest Hemingway and Alice Walker: Branding the Great American Writer discusses how Public Relations efforts have shaped the work of 20th century authors, Alice Walker and Ernest Hemingway through their respective stories The Color Purple and The Old Man and The Sea.

Though it is unclear exactly what the “something” is that comes out of Ahab’s nose, it is clear that this one-track-mind captain …
