 | | | "At the Cole School, where they had community singing
every morning the teacher noticed that
Jack
London remained silent. She asked him why. He replied
that she didn't know how to sing, that she would
spoil his voice because she flatted. The teacher
dispatched him to the principal to be punished. The
principal sent him back with a note saying that he could
be excused, but that he would have to write a composition
each morning for fifteen minutes of singing. Jack
ascribes his ability to write a thousand words every
morning to the habit formed in this class."

In 1937 Hemingway arrived in Spain to cover the Civil War for the North American Newspaper Alliance. He filed his dispatches, but the real fruit of those years was FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS.
The story of Robert Jordan, an American fighting with anti-fascist guerillas in the mountains of Spain, it tells of loyalty and courage, love and defeat, the tragic death of an ideal. It lives for us because of the great disillusionment that grew out of WW II, a war fought with such high hopes and concluded so cynically with a former ally gobbling up half of the Europe we hoped to liberate.
"If the function of a writer is to reveal reality," Maxwell wrote Hemingway after reading the manuscript, "no one ever so completely performed it." Great in power, broad in scope, intensely emotional, it stands as one of the best war novels of all times.
| | | | Annotation This masterpiece of time and place tells a profound and timeless story of courage and commitment, love and loss, that takes place over a fleeting 72 hours. Drawing on Hemingway's own involvement in the Spanish Civil War, For Whom the Bell Tolls reflects his passionate feelings about the nature of war and the meaning of loyalty.
