Quote by Ernest Hemingway
If the book is good, is about something that you know, and is truly written, and reading it over you see that this is so, you can let the boys yip and the noise will have that pleasant sound coyotes make on a very cold night when they are out in the snow and you are in your own cabin that you have built or paid for with your work.
Summary
This quote suggests that the true value of a good book lies in its ability to resonate with one's own knowledge and experience. When reading a book that meets these criteria, the opinions or criticisms of others become insignificant, akin to the distant yipping of coyotes. The imagery of being in a cozy cabin, built or earned through one's own effort, symbolizes the personal satisfaction and contentment derived from connecting with a well-written book that aligns with one's own understanding and perspective.
