While the podcast mentions "For Whom the Bell Tolls" in relation to a John Donne sermon, it's important to note that the title is most famously associated with Ernest Hemingway's novel.

Jordan's experiences and relationships highlight the complexities of war and the human cost of ideological battles.
The novel's powerful prose and exploration of universal themes have cemented its place as a classic of 20th-century literature.
