Book Overview

2025 Reprint of the 1929 Edition. Set against the sweeping backdrop of World War I, A Farewell to Arms is Ernest Hemingway's enduring masterpiece of love, courage, and the relentless chaos of life. Lieutenant Frederic Henry, an American ambulance driver in the Italian army, finds himself swept into the brutality of war and the profound tenderness of an unexpected romance. As Frederic's relationship with Catherine Barkley, a British nurse, blossoms, their love becomes a fragile sanctuary from the encroaching darkness of a war-torn world. Together, they navigate the perils of loyalty, the search for meaning, and the aching beauty of fleeting happiness.

Hemingway's spare, unflinching prose captures both the human cost of war and the transcendent power of love. First published in 1929, A Farewell to Arms remains a testament to Hemingway's genius and one of the most celebrated novels of the 20th century.

Whether you are discovering it for the first time or revisiting its timeless pages, this edition of A Farewell to Arms will remind you why Hemingway is regarded as one of the greatest literary voices of his time.

About Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer of his time. Publication of The Sun Also Rises and A Farewell to Arms immediately established Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century. His classic novel The Old Man and the Sea won the Pulitzer Prize in 1953. Hemingway was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1954. His life and accomplishments are explored in-depth in the PBS documentary film from Ken Burns and Lynn Novick, Hemingway. Known for his larger-than-life personality and his passions for bullfighting, fishing, and big-game hunting, he died in Ketchum, Idaho on July 2, 1961.
