  <default_description>In the fall of 1948, Ernest Hemingway made his first extended visit to Italy in thirty years. His reacquaintance with Venice, a city he loved, provided the inspiration for &lt;I&gt;Across the River and into the Trees,&lt;/I&gt; the story of Richard Cantwell, a war-ravaged American colonel stationed in Italy at the close of the Second World War, and his love for a young Italian countess. A poignant, bittersweet homage to love that overpowers reason, to the resilience of the human spirit, and to the worldweary beauty and majesty of Venice, &lt;I&gt;Across the River and into the Trees&lt;/I&gt; stands as Hemingway's statement of defiance in response to the great dehumanizing atrocities of the Second World War. Hemingway's last full-length novel published in his lifetime, it moved John O'Hara in &lt;I&gt;The New York Times Book Review&lt;/I&gt; to call him &quot;the most important author since Shakespeare.&quot;&lt;P&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I didn't like it. I talked to my father about it and he said that it represents the spirit of age and being nearer to death than to youth and trying to recapture that.

    <body><![CDATA[I'm sorry, but Ernest Heminway or not, this is not an entertaining book.  The dialogue reads like a song that keeps repeating an annoying chorus over and over.  &quot;I love you&quot;, no &quot;I love you&quot;.....Cannot recommend this book at all.  Probably the worst of 2008 for me.]]></body>
