5b Ernest Hemingway, London, 1941. First edition.
Notes
For Whom the Bell Tolls is a novel by Ernest Hemingway, published in 1940. Set during the Spanish Civil War, the story follows Robert Jordan, an American dynamiter working with a group of guerrilla fighters to blow up a bridge that will help the enemy's advance. The novel explores themes of love, death, honor, and the futility of war. Hemingways sparse, direct prose captures the emotional and physical toll of conflict, and the title, taken from John Donne’s meditation, reflects the interconnectedness of humanity for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee. It’s considered one of Hemingways finest works, reflecting both personal and universal struggles.
