<P> In November 1956 , while staying in Paris , he was reminded of trunks he had stored in the Ritz Hotel in 1928 and never retrieved . Upon re-claiming and opening the trunks , Hemingway discovered they were filled with notebooks and writing from his Paris years . Excited about the discovery , when he returned to Cuba in early 1957 , he began to shape the recovered work into his memoir A Moveable Feast . By 1959 he ended a period of intense activity : he finished A Moveable Feast ( scheduled to be released the following year ) ; brought True at First Light to 200,000 words ; added chapters to The Garden of Eden ; and worked on Islands in the Stream . The last three were stored in a safe deposit box in Havana , as he focused on the finishing touches for A Moveable Feast . Author Michael Reynolds claims it was during this period that Hemingway slid into depression , from which he was unable to recover . </P>
