Based on Hemingway's own experience volunteering with the Red Cross in Italy during World War I, and written when he was only thirty, it tells the story of Frederic Henry, an American ambulance driver, and Catherine Barkley, an English nurse. For Frederic, Catherine's kindness and beauty shore him up against the carnage of battle; for Catherine, Frederic's strength and devotion are a lifeboat in the sea of grief over her first love. Through injury, surgery, and the psychic fallout of war, they maintain an overwhelming desire to be together, even as forces conspire to keep them apart. Hemingway captures the intensity of both love and war with the taut immediacy and spare, understated eloquence that are his hallmarks, reminding us why this novel--his first bestseller--endures as a favorite, and why the Nobel laureate ranks among our most treasured writers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePenguin Vitae--loosely translated as \"Penguin of one's life\"--is a deluxe hardcover series from Penguin Classics celebrating a dynamic and diverse landscape of classic fiction and nonfiction from seventy-five years of classics publishing.
