About this listen

"A Farewell to Arms" was Ernest Hemingway’s first best-seller and the acclaim garnered by this book put his name on the 20th century literary map. The novel is based on Hemingway’s own experiences serving as an ambulance driver during the Italian campaign in World War I and has often been cited as one of the best war novels ever written.

The story follows the service of Frederic Henry, an American medic serving in the Italian army during the First World War. Frederic meets and falls in love with an English nurse named Catherine Berkley. Catherine has lost her fiancé in battle and initially rebuffs Frederic’s advances, but when he is wounded at the Italian front and sent to her hospital for treatment, their romance blossoms, leading the two lovers to attempt to flee the conflict and start a life together.

A blockbuster literary achievement for Hemingway, "A Farewell to Arms" has become a classic of American fiction. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
