　　A newly discovered story and a letter written by 20th century literary giant Ernest Hemingway will be auctioned in New York, in December.

　　The two－page letter and five －page story are based on an incident at a bullfighting arena(enclosed area). They were written in 1924 when the future Nobel prize winner was 25. This was just before the publication of his first important work, the short story collection “In Our Time”. The story, “My Life in the Bull Ring with Donald Ogden Stewart”, was inspired by an actual incident in 1924. Stewart, a popular US writer and close friend of Hemingway's, had faced a bull in Pamplona, Spain, the home of bullfighting.

　　“It's by no means a literary masterpiece, but I think it's more than youngsters' reading material,” said Patrick McGrath, an auction expert in books and manuscripts. “It's a clear attempt at writing a comic story, and it is interesting in that way, because it's a form Hemingway didn't try very often,” McGrath said.

　　The story and the letter are expected to bring between US 12,000 and US 18,000, McGrath said. The five－page story is about Stewart's effort to take an a bull during an amateur session during the famous annual running of the bulls. Hemingway sent the story to Stewart, asking him to submit the manuscript to the US magazine Vanity Fair for publication. But Stewart felt it was not good enough to pass on. He explained later in his autobiography that “humour was not (Hemingway's) dish.”

　　The work was apparently forgotten until last year when Stewart's son discovered the story and the letter among his father's papers. His father died in 1980.
