Robert Graves; Will Jonson

Opis

Robert Graves was with Siegfried Sassoon when Sassoon threw his medal for bravery into the River Mersey in Liverpool to begin his protest at the tactics of the British Army in the First World War. Graves's own reputation as a war poet has waned, but at his best he matches the gruesomeness of Owen and the bitter sarcasm of Sassoon, while adding his own brand of mordant and sardonic wit. This book will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in the poetic response to the First World War. Check out our other books at www.dogstailbooks.co.uk
