Overview
A Contemporary Classics hardcover edition of Hemingway’s masterpiece--a classic novel of World War I that is also a tender, haunting love story
Ernest Hemingway drew from his own war experiences when he crafted this remarkable story of an American ambulance driver serving on the Italian front and his love for a beautiful English nurse. The novel, Hemingway’s first best seller, is marked by vivid depictions of the horrors of the battlefield—but also by the heartrending vicissitudes of a passionate affair of the heart between his protragonists, Frederic and Catherine, leading up to a tragic ending that is all the more powerful for its famously understated expression.
Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket. Contemporary Classics include an introduction, a select bibliography, and a chronology of the author's life and times.
