Early Life and Bohemian Days
Erika Robuck was born into a wealthy family in Chicago in 1911. Her privileged upbringing, however, did not stifle her adventurous spirit. As a young woman, she embraced the bohemian lifestyle of Paris in the 1920s, immersing herself in the city's vibrant arts and literary scene.
It was during this time that Robuck crossed paths with Hemingway, who was then a struggling young writer. Their relationship, a whirlwind of love, passion, and reckless abandon, became the foundation for Brett Ashley's character in Hemingway's novel, The Sun Also Rises.
Tumultuous Love and Literary Legacy
Hemingway and Robuck's relationship was as tumultuous as it was intense. Their affair, punctuated by both highs and lows, provided Hemingway with ample fodder for his writing. In Brett Ashley, he created a character that reflected Robuck's free-spirited nature, her deep-seated emotional complexities, and her longing for adventure.
