We first meet Hemingway as a young boy dominated by the virile figure of his father, a doctor devoted to hunting and fishing. Hemingway next appears as an 18-year-old ambulance driver during World War I who is wounded on the frontline of Piave. In the hospital, he meets and falls in love with a young Red Cross nurse who later becomes the model for his heroine in " A Farewell to Arms", a fictionalizes account of his experience as a young soldier coming to grips with the horrors of war. Hemingway becomes a foreign correspondent and travels to France, Italy, and Spain, but soon abandons his journalistic career and settles in Paris to write novels and short stories. Interspersed throughout the story are Hemingway's encounters with an enigmatic woman of indeterminate age who becomes his closest confidant. She is the personification of death's shadow and follows him throughout his life. In the end, she finds him in a clinic as a disillusioned old man wasted by anxiety and depression. Shortly after, Ernest Hemingway takes his life with a shotgun. Written by Ulf Kjell Gür See less
