In Hemingway’s fiction, the Italian theater of World War I is a theater of the absurd,
alongside which even the notorious Western Front has a measure of dignity and purpose.
France may have “ghastly show[s]” like the Somme or Verdun, but it is there that the real
war is being fought and where its final outcome will be decided (Hemingway, A Farewell to
Arms 18).
