The months past while they are in the safety of Switzerland. Henry and Catherine plan to get married soon after the baby is born. Here is where he meets with an Italian bartender who will help him escape to Switzerland by boat. After swimming to safety, Henry boards a train to reunite with his love Catherine whom is pregnant with his child. Henry decided he has had enough of the war, he ran into the river to escape. He is disgusted with the army and facing death at the hands of the battle police during questioning. Henry shot an engineer sergeant under his command for dereliction, later in the confusion Henry is arrested by the battle police for the crime of not being Italian.

He fully recovered and returned to the war-front, during a retreat the Italians started to fall apart. That is where he actually began to fall in love with her. Henry was sent to the American hospital where Catherine worked. He was severely wounded on one of his runs. Catherine confronted Henry and told him what she thought of his game. At first Henry wanted to seduce the nurse, to him it was a game, he had told the nurse that he loved her, but she had caught on to his game. She was startled by rain in her nightmares. Catherine had lost her fiance during this war. Catherine suffered during this war before she met Henry. Henry meets Catherine Barkley, near the front between Italy and Austria-Hungary.

In my opinion Henry is emotionally exhausted and it appears he has no place to go. He is an American fighting a war in another country. He is isolated from his family and compatriots. Henry loved to play the role of a womanizer.

Henry feels detached from life and is on a quest for identification, he gives a particular insight about how he feels about women 'clear, cold and dry'. The novel portrays Henry as a drunk who traveled from one house of prostitution to the next, he was not happy with his lifestyle. A Farewell To Arms written by Ernest Hemingway illustrates a typical love story between two people, this love story plays out in a war torn Italy during world war I, where Italy was battling Austria, the novels main characters, lieutenant Fredrick Henry an American ambulance driver serving in the Italian army and Catherine Barkley an English volunteer nurse who served in Italy.
