In 1937 Ernest Hemingway traveled to Spain to cover the civil war there for the North American Newspaper Alliance. Three years later he completed the greatest novel to emerge from "the good fight," "For Whom the Bell Tolls." The story of Robert Jordan, a young American in the International Brigades attached to an antifascist guerilla unit in the mountains of Spain, it tells of loyalty and courage, love and defeat, and the tragic death of an ideal. In his portrayal of Jordan's love for the beautiful Maria and his superb account of El Sordo's last stand, in his brilliant travesty of La Pasionaria and his unwillingness to believe in blind faith, Hemingway surpasses his achievement in "The Sun Also Rises" and "A Farewell to Arms" to create a work at once rare and beautiful, strong and brutal, compassionate, moving and wise. "If the function of a writer is to reveal reality," Maxwell Perkins wrote to Hemingway after reading the manuscript, "no one ever so completely performed it." Greater in power, broader in scope, and more intensely emotional than any of the author's previous works, it stands as one of the best war novels of all time.

評分2008年春天,看瞭一篇海明威的短篇《三聲槍響》,那槍聲至今還迴蕩腦際。。。零零碎碎,無數個失眠的夜晚,拿起中文的《喪鍾為誰而鳴》隨手翻閱,跟隨西班牙戰爭,一天天行走在戰場中;在武漢返京的火車上,在迴京後心情陰鬱、沮喪的日子裏,把《THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA》(英...
