Ernest Hemingway’s classic novel of love during wartime.
Written when Ernest Hemingway was thirty years old and lauded as the best American novel to emerge from World War I, A Farewell to Arms is the unforgettable story of an American ambulance driver on the Italian front and his passion for a beautiful English nurse. Set against the looming horrors of the battlefield, this gripping, semiautobiographical work captures the harsh realities of war and the pain of lovers caught in its inexorable sweep.
Hemingway famously rewrote the ending to A Farewell to Arms thirty-nine times to get the words right. A classic novel of love during wartime, “A Farewell to Arms stands, more than eighty years after its first appearance, as a towering ornament of American literature” (The Washington Times).

Oldie but goldie. The story describes young love and the insanity it brings very accurately. The descriptions of war I could not tell if they where accurate or not, but I imagine it is quite a lot like Hemingways version. I would say I the narrator did a good job with all the accents and all. If You enjoy Hemingway You will probably enjoy this one as well, even if it's not my personal favorite work of his.
