This enduring classic is "a book which, no matter how many
readers it will ever have, will never have enough" (Ernest
Hemingway). The Unquiet Grave is considered by many to be his most
enduring work. It is a highly personal journal written
during the devastation of World War II, filled with
reflective passages that deal with aging, the break-up of a
long term relationship, and the horrors of the war around
him. It is also a wonderfully varied intellectual feast: a
collection of aphorisms, epigrams, and quotations from such
masters of European literature as Horace, Baudelaire,
Sainte-Beuve, Flaubert, and Goethe. Dazzlingly original in both form and content, The Unquiet
Grave has continued to influence generations of writers.
