Small World - Man Ray and Ernest Hemingway crossing paths

I found Man Ray's grave in Paris' Cimetiere de Montparnasse in September and took a few pictures of the headstones. The Montparnesse Cemetery also contains the remains of rock star Jim Morrison and other notables.

Then, a few weeks ago, reading The Paris Wife, a novel by Paula McLain about the life of Ernest Hemingway, the story talks about Hemingway and his wife hanging around the Montparnasse area of Paris with artists including Man Ray and his wife.

Small world.
