"For Whom the Bell Tolls" is one of Ernest Hemingway's best novels.
This book is about the Spanish Civil War. This book is about the War as it really is - dirty, bloody, inhuman. This book is about love, courage, self-sacrifice, moral duty and choice, the value of each human life as part of the whole, for "never send to find out for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for you too"... "The Fifth Column". Spain at the end of the Civil War. The Frankists are besieging Madrid. The Republic is doomed, and it is impossible not to realize it. Now every Spaniard will have to decide what is dearer to him: life or freedom, abstract ideals or his own well-being. And often this choice turns out to be very difficult ... This is the main idea of The Fifth Column, Ernest Hemingway's only and therefore unique play.
