I have only read For whom the bell tolls and The old man and the sea. I didn't care that much for The old man and the see, but For whom the bell tolls is one of my all-time favorite books.
I had tried to keep reading books by him with To have or have not, but could not finish it. This thread motivates me to try some more books by him, starting with A farewell to arms.
A question to those who have read For whom the bell tolls: my copy has the word 'obscenity' used whenever a character uses a swear word (for instance: "I obscenity in the milk of thy mother"). Is that a feature of the original text, or do I have a prude edition?
