Summary
Ernest Hemingway: For Whom the Bell Tolls
High in the pine forests of the Spanish Sierra, a guerrilla band prepares to blow up a vitally important bridge. Robert Jordan, a young American volunteer was sent to carry out the detonation task. There, in those mountains, he gets to know the dangerous, tumultuous relations that reign between war comrades. And there he also meets Maria, a young woman who escaped from Franco's putschists.
For Whom the Bell Tolls is Hemingway's best novel, a passion-filled recollection of the pride and tragedy of the civil war that tore Spain apart.
