Unseen documents Ernest Hemingway left at his Cuban estate have finally returned to America, more than 50 years after his death.

Two thousand recently digitised documents have been transferred to Boston’s John F. Kennedy Library, shedding new light into the Nobel Prize-winning novelist’s life and allowing scholars to add text to the fabric they’ve strewn together of the influential 20th-century writer. The document’s return comes after the collaboration between Boston-based, Finca Vigia Foundation, named after Hemingway’s Cuban estate, and the U.S government’s work to preserve the author’s belongings in Cuba.
