Annotation
Compares Frederic’s and Othello’s methods of coping with alienation, identity, love, and war. Interprets both characters as strangers in a potentially inhospitable landscape, concluding that Hemingway’s novel rewrites Othello with a more positive ending as Frederic comes to the realization that love and war do not mix.
