hey, all here. I am reading Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms and will probably write a book review about it. I need your opinions.
Some people consider it a war novel or anti-war novel as it relates the WW1. But others argue that it is a love story as the love story occupies a great places in the novel. And, most people say it should be both.
So, how do you think of this novel?
Thank you for sharing.

I do not think it is a love novel.I have read the chinese translation of this book, I consider it as an anti-war novel. It contains a love story, but this is just the sub-clue of the novel. It described a story of gernerated man in the desgerneration age. He have nothing but he is strong minded man. Even when he lost his wife at the last.
