Inhaltsangabe
Probably the best single collection by any individual British poet of the First World War in terms of consistency and sustained quality. Sassoon is detailed and moving in his depictions of the horrors of trench warfare, but equallly ferocious in his attacks on the British establishment who encouraged and supported the tactics which led to mass slaughter. A passionate and moving anti-war collection of poems! Check out our other books at www.dogstailbooks.co.uk
