The novel has been adapted a number of times: initially for the stage in 1930 as a film in 1932, and again in 1957 and as a three-part television miniseries in 1966. The title might be taken from a 16th‑century poem of the same name by the English dramatist George Peele. The book became his first best-seller and has been called "the premier American war novel from World War I". Its publication ensured Hemingway's place as a modern American writer of considerable stature. The novel describes a love affair between the expatriate from America and an English nurse, Catherine Barkley. First published in 1929, it is a first-person account of an American, Frederic Henry, serving as a lieutenant ( Italian: tenente) in the ambulance corps of the Italian Army. A Farewell to Arms is a novel by American writer Ernest Hemingway, set during the Italian campaign of World War I. Wistful silences demonstrate unfinished business. Stories about food show a strong connection. If you want to understand any woman you must first ask about her mother and then listen carefully. Had I been asked to speak of it, I would have begun with the story of the generation that raised me, which is the only place to begin. Nothing remained except a few mangled details about those weeks in Shechem. No one recalled my skill as a midwife, or the songs I sang, or the bread I baked for my insatiable brothers. Maybe you heard it in the music of my name: the first vowel high and clear, as when a mother calls to her child at dusk the second sound soft, for whispering secrets on pillows. Maybe you guessed that there was more to me than the voiceless cipher in the text. It's a wonder that any mother ever called a daughter Dinah again. Near the beginning of your holy book, there is a passage that seems to say I was raped and continues with the bloody tale of how my honor was avenged. On those rare occasions when I was remembered, it was as a victim. That is why I became a footnote, my story a brief detour between the well-known history of my father, Jacob, and the celebrated chronicle of Joseph, my brother. The chain connecting mother to daughter was broken and the word passed to the keeping of men, who had no way of knowing. We have been lost to each other for so long. " us a panoramic view, and in his vivid portrayal the day unfolds in all its horrible detail." -Jay Winik The New York Times Book Review He gives battlefield maneuvers deeper meaning and purpose because of his deep appreciation for context and the human dimension of history." -Peter Carmichael, American History Magazine "Sears does much more than reconstruct events. "Readers thrilled by the minute details of battlefield maneuvers will be thoroughly engaged." Booklist, ALA "The book's strength is the consistent and striking characterizations of the many generals and commanding officers involved in the battle." Library Journal "A fine study, detailed and challenging, that complements such popular accounts of the battle as Bruce Catton's Glory Road and Shelby Foote's The Stars in Their Courses."

"Robert McCloskey's unusual and stunning pictures have long been a delight for their fun as well as their spirit of place."- The Horn Book Mrs. However, despite its dated setting, I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream remains a powerful and relevant story today.
