A Farewell To Arms by Ernest Hemingway
An American ambulance driver serving with the Italian forces during World War I falls into a passionate, complicated relationship with a British nurse amid the chaos of battle; their love offers refuge from the brutality of war but is tested by injury, retreat, and bureaucratic indifference. After being wounded and returning to the front, he deserts and the couple flee to Switzerland seeking peace, only for their fragile hopes to collapse when tragedy strikes during childbirth. The narrative is a spare, elegiac exploration of courage, disillusionment, and the costs of love in a world ravaged by conflict.
