Three years later he completed the greatest novel to emerge from \"the good fight,\" and one of the foremost classics of war literature in history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePublished in 1940, \u003ci\u003eFor Whom the Bell Tolls\u003c\/i\u003e tells the story of Robert Jordan, a young American in the International Brigades attached to an antifascist guerilla unit in the mountains of Spain. In his portrayal of Jordan's love for the beautiful Maria and his superb account of El Sordo's last stand, in his brilliant travesty of La Pasionaria and his unwillingness to believe in blind faith, Hemingway surpasses his achievement in \u003ci\u003eThe Sun Also Rises\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA Farewell to Arms\u003c\/i\u003e to create a work at once rare and beautiful, strong and brutal, compassionate, moving, and wise. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"If the function of a writer is to reveal reality,\" Maxwell Perkins wrote Hemingway after reading the manuscript, \"no one ever so completely performed it.\" Greater in power, broader in scope, and more intensely emotional than any of the author's previous works, \u003ci\u003eFor Whom the Bell Tolls\u003c\/i\u003e tells of loyalty and courage, love and defeat, and the tragic death of an ideal. When it was first published, \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e called it \"a tremendous piece of work,\" and it still stands today as one of the best war novels of all time.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eErnest Hemingway did more to change the style of English prose than any other writer of his time. Publication of \u003ci\u003eThe Sun Also Rises\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA Farewell to Arms\u003c\/i\u003e immediately established Hemingway as one of the greatest literary lights of the twentieth century.
