‎Ernest Hemingway‎

‎A Farewell to Arms.‎

‎<p>In a fitted Box. Red cloth binding with white title. White front board with red and black design.</p><p>An exceptional Folio Book</p><p>The story chronicles the experiences of Frederic Henry an American serving on the Italian Front as an ambulance driver in 1915. After being injured by a shell he begins a love affair with a beautiful English nurse Catherine Barkley. But after his return to the Front the tide begins to turn against the Allies and following the desperate Italian retreat at Caporetto Frederic's only escape is with Catherine. Moulded from Hemingway's own experiences on the Italian Front Frederic's narrative resembles a memoir mirroring Hemingway's lifelong quest for the most 'truthful' form of the written word.</p><p>A Farewell to Arms is a novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway set during the Italian campaign of World War I. First published in 1929 it is a first-person account of an American Frederic Henry serving as a lieutenant in the ambulance corps of the Italian Army. The novel describes a love affair between the expatriate from America and an English nurse Catherine Barkley.</p><p>Its publication ensured Hemingway's place as a modern American writer of considerable stature. The book became his first best-seller and has been called "the premier American war novel from World War I". The title might be taken from a 16th‑century poem of the same name by the English dramatist George Peele.</p><p>The novel has been adapted a number of times: initially for the stage in 1930; as a film in 1932 and again in 1957; and as a three-part television miniseries in 1966. The film In Love and War made in 1996 depicts Hemingway's life in Italy as an ambulance driver in events prior to his writing of A Farewell to Arms.</p><p>Ernest Miller Hemingway July 21 1899 – July 2 1961 was an American novelist short-story writer and journalist. His economical and understated style—which included his iceberg theory—had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction while his adventurous lifestyle and public image brought him admiration from later generations. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s and he was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature. He published seven novels six short-story collections and two nonfiction works. Three of his novels four short-story collections and three nonfiction works were published posthumously. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature.</p><p>Hemingway was raised in Oak Park Illinois. After high school he was a reporter for a few months for The Kansas City Star before leaving for the Italian Front to enlist as an ambulance driver in World War I. In 1918 he was seriously wounded and returned home. His wartime experiences formed the basis for his novel A Farewell to Arms 1929.</p><p>In 1921 he married Hadley Richardson the first of four wives. They moved to Paris where he worked as a foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star and fell under the influence of the modernist writers and artists of the 1920s' "Lost Generation" expatriate community. Hemingway's debut novel The Sun Also Rises was published in 1926. He divorced Richardson in 1927 and married Pauline Pfeiffer. They divorced after he returned from the Spanish Civil War 1936–1939 which he covered as a journalist and which was the basis for his novel For Whom the Bell Tolls 1940. Martha Gellhorn became his third wife in 1940. He and Gellhorn separated after he met Mary Welsh in London during World War II. Hemingway was present with Allied troops as a journalist at the Normandy landings and the liberation of Paris.</p><p>He maintained permanent residences in Key West Florida in the 1930s and in Cuba in the 1940s and 1950s. On a 1954 trip to Africa he was seriously injured in two plane accidents on successive days leaving him in pain and ill health for much of the rest of his life. In 1959 he bought a house in Ketchum Idaho where in mid-1961 he died by suicide.</p> The Folio Society. hardcover‎

‎A Farewell to Arms‎

‎New York: Charles Scribner's Sons 1929. First Edition First Printing First Issue. First edition first printing - first issue with no disclaimer present. Measures approximately 7.5" x 5.25" 355 numbered pages. Comes with a brand new facsimile reproduction dust jacket for protection and display.<br /> <br /> This book is in very good minus condition. Moderate wear and staining to the black cloth boards. Spine is sun faded. Previous owner's bookplate on the front endpaper. Interior pages are clean. <br /> <br /> Early in 1918 Ernest Hemingway joined the Italian Red Cross and served as an ambulance driver in Italy during World War I. During his time abroad Hemingway had two experiences that affected him profoundly and that would later inspire one of his most celebrated novels A Farewell to Arms. The first occurred on July 8 1918 when a trench mortar shell struck him while he crouched beyond the front lines with three Italian soldiers. Though Hemingway embellished the story over the years it is certain that he was transferred to a hospital in Milan where he fell in love with a Red Cross nurse named Agnes von Kurowsky. Scholars are divided over Agnes' role in Hemingway's life and writing but there is little doubt that his relationship with her informed the relationship between Lieutenant Henry and Catherine Barkley in A Farewell to Arms. What unfolds is a story filled with romance intertwined with moments of bravery danger love and loss.<br /> <br /> Please view the many other rare titles available for purchase at our store.
