Reading & Critical Thinking
A Farewell to Arms
Ernest Hemingway
@ Many people think that A Farewell to Arms, which Ernest Hemingway wrote in 1929, is his best novel. It was very successful – in the first four months in the bookshops, 80,000 books were sold.
@ It is the story of a young American called Frederic Henry who goes to Europe to help the Italian soldiers during the First World War, like Hemingway himself did. While he is there, he is badly wounded in the legs and is sent to a special hospital in the city of Milan to recover. An English nurse, Catherine Barkley, looks after Frederic there, and the two become very friendly. When Frederic is better again, he goes back to help the soldiers, but this time things don't go well and Frederic is in danger. He returns to Milan and he and Catherine escape to another country, where they marry. Catherine and Frederic live very happily together in a small mountain village.
