A Farewell to Arms
By, Ernest Hemingway
Summary
Review
Favorite Passage
This passage was my favorite due to the fact that Henry falls into desperation. He looks to God to seek a miracle for the woman he actually loves. It is a sad passage that makes you realize the sadness he must feel. He prays anyway in the hopes that there is a chance she will survive.
Characters

She is a woman of pure love and devotion and ask repeadtly for confirmation that Henry loves her and only her. She was previously engaged with her boyfriend of eight years but broke it off later. She is small woman that will be her undoing later in the novel.
