Laura Jarrard laurajarrard — A Farewell to Arms was Hemingway’s third novel and the one that brought him financial security.as well as a permanent place in American letters. Published in 1929, two years after The Sun Also Rises, it follows the life of Frederick Henry from his service in the ambulance corps on the Italian front during the First World War through the death of Catherine Barkley, his love interest. It is, as much of Hemingway’s work, semi-autobiographical. The novel is also among Hemingway’s stronger, more effective of his writings. It is vintage Hemingway both in regard to style (crisp, direct, descriptively concise) and controlling themes (war, loss of innocence, competition, masculinity). It is, in contrast to The Sun Also Rises, written with more physical action. Movement in the latter novel—with the exception of the bull fight in Pamplona—is essentially static with the dramatic interest rising from the interpersonal relationships and tensions among and between the major characters. In A Farewell to Arms, a large part of the dramatic interest builds around Frederick Henry’s physical, prolonged retreat from the Italian Front during WWI. There is the mystery, fear and tension of flight and pursuit. The novel gives the reader an intimate if cynical view of war. Hemingway’s description of the Italian retreat at the Battle of Caporetto is at once stunning and suffocating. The novel also, particularly in its latter chapters, describes a passionate but tragic love story that stands in sharp contrast to Frederick Henry’s retreat from battle. A Farewell to Arms is a classic novel from one of America’s literary giants.
