The best American novel to emerge from World War I, A
Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American
ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a
beautiful English nurse. Hemingway's frank portrayal of the
love between Lieutenant Henry and Catherine Barkley, caught
in the inexorable sweep of war, glows with an intensity
unrivaled in modern literature, while his description of the
German attack on Caporetto -- of lines of fired men marching
in the rain, hungry, weary, and demoralized -- is one of the
greatest moments in literary history.
A story of love and pain, of loyalty and desertion, A
Farewell to Arms, written when he was 30 years old,
represents a new romanticism for Hemingway.
