elijahdavidson 's review for:

A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway

---

Is it possible to feel even more devastated now by the end (really by the whole second half) of this book than I did when I first read it as a junior or senior in high school? Yeah. I'm much more familiar with the breaking Hemingway captures here. "It is in defeat that we become Christian." Now I know how true that is.
