Ernest Hemingway. A Farewell to Arms. Charles Scribner's Sons, New York, 1953.
Price: US$75.00 + shipping
Description: This is a later printing from 1953. Measures approximately 8.5" x 5.5", 342 numbered pages. With its original dust jacket. This book is in vey good condition. Silver lettering bright and well preserved. White paint or similar staining at the very bottom of the spine also affecting the front board. Dust jacket is in very good minus condition. Chipping and sunning to spine. Top corner of front flap creased. Minor small stain on the rear panel. Early in 1918, Ernest Hemingway joined the Italian Red Cross and served as an ambulance driver in Italy during World War I. During his time abroad, Hemingway had two experiences that affected him profoundly and that would later inspire one of his most celebrated novels, A Farewell to Arms. The first occurred on July 8, 1918, when a trench mortar shell struck him while he crouched beyond the front lines with three Italian soldiers. Though Hemingway embellished the story over the years, it is certain that he was transferred to a hospital in Milan, where he fell in love with a Red Cross nurse named Agnes von Kurowsky. Scholars are divided over Agnes' role in Hemingway's life and writing, but there is little doubt that his relationship with her informed the relationship between Lieutenant Henry and Catherine Barkley in A Farewell to Arms. What unfolds is a story filled with romance intertwined with moments of bravery, danger, love, and loss. Please view the many other rare titles available for purchase at our store.

I Svenska Dagbladet 10 Jan 1955 var infört följande notis; "DEN GAMLE OCH HAVET, Då svenska Amerika Linjens Vretaholm 28 december - 6 januari låg i Havanna, fick man celebert besök ombord. Det var Ernest Hemingway, som på Personlig inbjudan av Skeppsredare Tor-Erland J:son Broström lunchade ombord och besåg fartyget." i Svensk skeppstidning januari 1955 var infört följande notis; "SAL Vretaholm hade under senaste hamnliggande i Havanna ett celebert besök. Det var 1954-års nobelpristagare i litteratur Ernest Hemingway, som på personlig inbjudan av skeppsredare Tor Erland J:son Broström åt lunch ombord och samtidigt passade på att närmare bekanta sig med det svenska fartyget. I lunchen deltog även skeppsredare Broströms Maka Marie-Elisabeth, Mr Hemingways maka och befälhavaren ombord på Vretaholm, Sjökapten Nils Grönquist." "This is Ernest Hemingway's lyrical journal of a month on safari in the great game country of East Africa where he and his wife Pauline journeyed in December of 1933. Hemingway's well-known fascination with hunting is magnificently captured in this evocative account. An intriguing examination of the lure of the hunt and an impassioned portrait of the glory of the African landscape and beauty of a wilderness that was - even then - threatened by incursions" ""Green Hills of Africa was published in 1935, but initially appeared in Scribners Magazine the same year (Meyers, 1985). The first edition explains that Hemingway "attempted to write an absolutely true book to see whether the shape of a country and the pattern of a month's action can, if truly presented, compete with a work of the imagination." The author's intentions were quickly confirmed when the first print-run sold a popular 10,500 copies, and it was aptly praised by The New York Times as "a fine book on death in the African afternoon.The writing is the thing; that way he has of getting down with beautiful precision the exact way things look, smell, taste, feel, sound." Not unlike Hemingway's virtuosic abilities, Green Hills of Africa also offers the writer's opinions on the value of his contemporaries: Hemingway adds that most American writers are inadequate and "came to a bad end" The value of Green Hills of Africa, therefore, is three-fold. It serves as masterly written entertainment, a successful social experiment that tested the receptivity of the American public, and an insight into the author's literary evaluation. The Observer is correct when it wrote, "If he were never to write again, his name would live as long as the English language, for Green Hills of Africa takes its place beside his other works on that small shelf in our libraries which we reserve for the classics."".
