Articulates a response to the Great War which many feel, but no one has analysed so scrupulously * * Spectator * * A gentle, patient, loving book. It is about mourning and memory, about how the Great War has been represented - and our sense of it shaped and defined - by different artistic media . . . its textures are the very rhythms of memory and consciousness * * Guardian * * A penetrating meditation upon war and remembrance * * Daily Telegraph * *
Reseña del editor
Head bowed, rifle on his back, a soldier is silhouetted against the going down of the sun, looking at the grave of a dead comrade, remembering him. A photograph from the war, is also a photograph of the way the war will be remembered. It is a photograph of the future, of the future's view of the past. Geoff Dyer's classic book is an original and personal meditation upon war and remembrance. It weaves a network of myth and memory, photos and films, poetry and sculptures, graveyards and ceremonies that illuminate our understanding of, and relationship to, the Great War.
