### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A book to be savoured
*by S***7 on 6 August 2018*

In high school I never really liked Hemingway's novels because I could not relate to his topics--"man" things like bullfights and drinking and fishing. Now, as an older adult, I read A Farewell to Arms with eagerness and awe. Eager to turn the next page and awe at Hemingway's use of language. This novel is a good starting point for learning about the Battle of Solferino, which was the beginning of the end of the Habsburger Monarchy. It is also an example of English language at its finest. The author uses a simple vocabulary in a non-simplistic manner. His sentences are not grammatically difficult, but they are often difficult to understand in their subtler meanings. His repetitions and lack of commons means the reader is challenged to think and doesn't get everything dished out on a plate. I recommend this book for historians who want to learn more about Solferino and for literature lovers who savour language.
