He was an American author whose works included "For Whom the Bell Tolls," "A Farewell to Arms," and "The Sun Also Rises."

The correct answer is Ernest Hemingway. This American novelist and journalist won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954; he published "Farewell to arms" in 1929, "For whom the bells toll" in 1940, and "The sun also rises" in 1926, which was his debut novel. Most of his works are classics of the American Literature.

Ernest Miller Hemingway (July 21, 1899 - July 2, 1961) was an American journalist, novelist, and short-story writer who won the Pulitzer Prize (1953) and the Nobel Prize in Literature (1954) for his novel The Old Man and the Sea, which was made into a 1958 film The Old Man and the Sea (1958).

He was noted both for the intense masculinity of his writing and for his adventurous and widely publicized life. His succinct and lucid prose style exerted a powerful influence on American and British fiction in the 20th century.

Hemingway - himself a great sportsman - liked to portray soldiers, hunters, bullfighters - tough, at times primitive people whose courage and honesty are set against the brutal ways of modern society, and who in this confrontation lose hope and faith.
