Reviews
"I think A Farewell to Arms is Hemingway's greatest novel, the truest. It's also heartbreaking." --Edna O'Brien "We can't seem to stop using a certain kind of elevated, heroic language about war and it is our duty always to puncture it. No one has ever done that as eloquently as Hemingway, through the accumulating weight of his sentences, and the emotional clarity, the disgust and also the reverence for what has been done." --Tobias Wolff
