- Annotation
- Examines the concept of modern war, characterized by nationalism, industrialism, and total immersion in Crane s The Red Badge of Courage (1895), Heller s Catch-22 (1961), and A Farewell to Arms. Categorizing A Farewell to Arms as an example of the separate peace escape war narrative, Hawkins analyzes the question of whether life after war exists, concluding that Frederic and Catherine are doomed to fail from the beginning.
