Annotation
Biographical reading focused on the influence of Hemingway’s childhood home and yearning for home expressed in his unpublished “The Tale of Orpen” and A Farewell to Arms. Griffin associates Hemingway’s early house in Oak Park with the whorehouse at the Italian front and discusses the author’s parents as real-life models for hospital medical staff and Frederic’s desire to make a home with Catherine.
