sannermatt 's review for:

A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway

I thought this book was going to be about a double amputee coming to terms with his condition, but instead I got a book about being blown up while eating cheese.

Hemingway’s sparse, matter of fact style was refreshing. This novel is absolutely devastating. I can see why Bradley Cooper got so pissed off in Silver Linings Playbook, bipolar disorder or no. However, I would never dream of throwing this book out of a closed window. I quite enjoyed it.
