- Annotation
- Clarifies Hemingway s complicated and conflicted views on war, correcting the popular perception that the author possessed overtly warmongering convictions. Meredith examines the difference between Hemingway s actual war experiences and those fictionalized in his works. Draws on A Farewell to Arms and Across the River and into the Trees to exemplify the range in Hemingway s approach to writing about war. Concludes that though the author may not have captured conflict perfectly, his accuracy in treating individual war trauma is unparalleled.
