Lawyer Dermot Ross has grown up and has spent the majority of his 67 years living in beautiful New Zealand, with a brief sojourn to London during his 20s. Although Hemingway's Goblet is Dermot's debut novel, he is no stranger to writing, having authored several book reviews for journals as well as articles which have been published in legal texts. He was also a founder shareholder in a well-regarded New Zealand literary magazine in the 90s. Influenced by his close network of friends - many of whom are published novelists - Dermot decided to embark on his own novel. Hemingway's Goblet showcases Dermot's knowledge and passion for the law, military history and, of course, the life and works of Ernest Hemingway.
