"Perfect. Nothing much to say about this epic of the spanish guerrilla. Sometimes it may get a bit cheesy, but let's consider that Hemingway's cheesy moments are kind of clumsy and end up being not that cheesy after all haha. "

    " This book has completely altered the definiton of war to me. A theme glamourized by much modern literature, textbooks included, For Whom The Bell Tolls was a relieving departure from this commonality. "

    " This was definitely a departure from the Hemingway I'm used to from A Farewell to Arms and The Sun Also Rises. I enjoyed it, but it was a bit long in the middle. The beginning and the end were most interesting. "

About Ernest Hemingway

Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961), born in Oak Park, Illinois, started his career as a writer in a newspaper office in Kansas City at the age of seventeen. After the United States entered the First World War, he joined a volunteer ambulance unit in the Italian army. After his return to the United States, he became a reporter for Canadian and American newspapers. During the twenties, Hemingway became a member of the group of expatriate Americans in Paris, which he described in his first important work, The Sun Also Rises. He also wrote Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and The Old Man and the Sea, the story of an old fisherman’s journey, his long and lonely struggle with a fish and the sea, and his victory in defeat. He also wrote short stories that are collected in Men Without Women and The Fifth Column and the First Forty-Nine Stories. Hemingway died in Idaho in 1961.
