Since he has read the story already, he gave me the book that he painstakingly found while rummaging through the heaps of books. While browsing a book sale, a fellow reader recommended to me Ernest Hemingway’s For Whom The Bell Tolls. Facing certain failure, Jordan learns the true meaning of loyalty and sacrifice and the high price of liberty. Set amidst the tragedy of the Spanish Civil War, it tells the story of Robert Jordan, an American volunteer guerilla who has only three days to plan the destruction of a strategically important bridge. Written in the late 1930s, when democracy faces its greatest peril, For Whom the Bell Tolls is Hemingway’s masterful novel about love, death, honor and betrayal. Genre: War Novel Historical Fiction Synopsis
