It was thus understandable that he was among those recruited, along with Hemingway, to travel to Spain to make a film in support of the Republican cause.<\/h5>\n<h5>However, while there, Dos Passos began making inquiries about a close Spanish friend who&#8217;d unaccountably vanished, and eventually learned that Stalin&#8217;s secret police had murdered him. Belatedly, his eyes were opened to the bloodcurdling reality behind the myths so artfully propagated at home. Worse, he refused to stay quiet about it.<\/h5>\n<h5>Lyons recounts the episode only briefly, making the point that, as a result, when the celebrated author&#8217;s next book was published three years later, critics discovered &#8220;that Dos Passos had never really known how to write.&#8221;<\/h5>\n<div id=\"attachment_193676\" style=\"width: 370px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hemingway-and-Justin-Trudeaus-father-Castro.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-193676\" class=\"wp-image-193676\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hemingway-and-Justin-Trudeaus-father-Castro.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hemingway-and-Justin-Trudeaus-father-Castro.jpg 480w, https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Hemingway-and-Justin-Trudeaus-father-Castro-300x204.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-193676\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Illuminati rentboy Ernest Hemingway with Justin Trudeau&#8217;s father, Fidel Castro.
