About this listen

In January 1934, Ernest Hemingway stood at the rim of Tanzania’s Ngorongoro Crater—a hunter, a writer, and a man already larger than life. His official safari account would go on to shape Green Hills of Africa and inspire two of his finest short stories. But one day from that expedition was never published.


In this episode of Project Nightglass, we uncover a long-lost diary entry, recovered in 2002 from a private archive in Arusha. What it reveals is a moment Hemingway never shared publicly—one that shook even his unshakable worldview.


Project Nightglass is a classified archive of forgotten encounters, buried testimony, and lost voices from history. Each episode bears witness to a moment of contact—between our world and something other.
