They divorced after he returned from the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939), which he covered as a journalist and which was the basis for his novel For Whom the Bell Tolls (1940). He divorced Richardson in 1927, and married Pauline Pfeiffer. Hemingway's debut novel The Sun Also Rises was published in 1926. They moved to Paris, where he worked as a foreign correspondent for the Toronto Star and fell under the influence of the modernist writers and artists of the 1920s' ' Lost Generation' expatriate community. In 1921, he married Hadley Richardson, the first of four wives. His wartime experiences formed the basis for his novel A Farewell to Arms (1929). In 1918, he was seriously wounded and returned home. After high school, he was a reporter for a few months for The Kansas City Star before leaving for the Italian Front to enlist as an ambulance driver in World War I. Hemingway was raised in Oak Park, Illinois. Many of his works are considered classics of American literature. Three of his novels, four short-story collections, and three nonfiction works were published posthumously. He published seven novels, six short-story collections, and two nonfiction works. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and he was awarded the 1954 Nobel Prize in Literature. His economical and understated style-which included his iceberg theory-had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his adventurous lifestyle and public image brought him admiration from later generations.
