A Farewell to Arms
Omtale
Hemingway's beloved novel of doomed love during wartime, now available for the first time from Penguin Classics, with a new foreword by Abraham Verghese, the multimillion-copy bestselling author of The Covenant of Water and Cutting for Stone One of The Atlantic's Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years A Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition, with flaps and deckle-edged paper Amid the horrors of the Italian front in World War I, American ambulance driver Frederic Henry and English nurse Catherine Barkley fall hopelessly in love. For Frederic, the nurse's kindness and beauty are an anchor against the carnage; for Catherine, the ambulance driver is a lifeboat in the sea of grief for her first love. But even their passion is not enough to forestall the battle lines that creep ever closer with each Italian loss, and as the chaos and tragedy of war threaten their love, Frederic and Catherine must face the fragile nature of their humanity head-on. In his signature spare prose, Hemingway draws from his own experience as an ambulance driver in World War I to evoke the horrors of war with brutal precision. A Farewell to Arms, his first bestseller, is a masterful portrayal of humanity in all its highs and lows that secures Hemingway's place among the foremost authors of American literature.
