Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

"A Farewell to Arms" stands as one of the most significant literary achievements of the twentieth century, cementing Ernest Hemingway's reputation as a master of modern prose. Set against the harrowing backdrop of the Italian campaign during World War I, the novel follows Frederic Henry, a young American ambulance driver serving in the Italian army. The narrative masterfully intertwines the brutal realities of trench warfare with a poignant and intense romance between Henry and Catherine Barkley, an English volunteer nurse.Through his signature minimalist style, Hemingway explores profound themes of love, loss, courage, and the disillusionment of the "lost generation." As the conflict escalates and the chaos of the Caporetto retreat unfolds, the protagonists struggle to find meaning and a sense of "peace" in a world ravaged by senseless violence. This hauntingly beautiful work is both a definitive war novel and a tragic love story, capturing the fragility of human connection amidst the devastation of global conflict. "A Farewell to Arms" remains a cornerstone of the American literary canon, celebrated for its emotional depth and stark portrayal of the human condition during wartime.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
