Farewell, Weapons
About This Novel
During World War I, the American young man Frederick Henry came to the Italian front as a volunteer and served as a lieutenant in a field ambulance team, where he met the British nurse Catherine. During a mission, Henry was injured and was sent to Milan Hospital for recuperation, where Catherine also happened to be transferred to work. After an unexpected reunion and Catherine's careful care of Henry, the two fell in love. After recovering from his injury, Henry, who returned to the front line, became more aware of the cruelty of war. In order to escape the punishment of the so-called "AWOL" officers, he resolutely left the army and joined Catherine, and the two fled to Switzerland together. Unfortunately, after a short period of happiness, Catherine died in childbirth, and the baby also died of suffocation, leaving Henry alone in the world.
