Description: For Whom the Bell Tolls is a novel written by Ernest Hemingway, published in 1940. It’s set during the Spanish Civil War and follows Robert Jordan, an American dynamiter working with a band of guerrilla fighters, tasked with blowing up a bridge crucial to an enemy offensive. Hemingway explores themes of honor, sacrifice, love, and the futility of war. The title is taken from John Donne’s meditation that emphasizes the interconnectedness of all humanity: “for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.” It’s regarded as one of Hemingway’s finest works, notable for its exploration of loyalty, courage, and human connection in the face of destruction. The edition you’re referring to, Scribner’s 1940 hardcover, would likely be a highly collectible first edition. If it’s described as “clean” and “attractive,” it suggests the book has been well-maintained, free of significant wear, marks, or damage, which increases its value among collectors.
