This is the perfect setting for the story "A Clean, Well-Lighted Place" by Ernest Hemingway. (photo left) The old, deaf man could well have chosen one of these chairs to relax in during the quiet of the night. It is a clean and pleasant cafe and exactly matches that very description of Hemingway's cafe setting.
