Books written by Hemingway:
Farewell to Arms 1929
While serving with the Italian ambulance service during World War I, the American lieutenant Frederick Henry falls in love with the English nurse Catherine Barkley, who tends to him after he is wounded. She becomes pregnant but refuses to marry him, and he returns to his post. Henry deserts during the Italians\' retreat after the Battle of Caporetto, and the reunited couple flee into Switzerland. There, however, Catherine and her baby die during childbirth, leaving Henry desolate .


The Old Man and the Sea 1952
Short novel awarded the 1953 Pulitzer Prize for fiction. Completed after a 10-year literary drought, it was his last major work of fiction. The novel is written in Hemingway\'s characteristically spare prose. It concerns an old Cuban fisherman named Santiago who finally catches a magnificent fish(marlin) after weeks of not catching anything. After three days of struggling with the fish, he finally manages to reel it in and lash it to his boat, only to have sharks eat it as he returns to the harbour. The other fishermen marvel at the size of the skeleton; Santiago is spent but triumphant.
