Inhaltsangabe

What does Birdsong tell us about human endurance?
How does Faulks link the themes of love and war?
What makes the novel so vivid?
Why is it called Birdsong?

In his introduction to the tenth anniversary edition of Birdsong, Sebastian Faulks writes: “The major theme was this: how far can you go? What are the limits of humanity?” In this short, incisive guide, David Isaacs looks at what makes this extraordinary novel about the First World War so effective and powerful - and why the critics have been more or less unanimous in hailing it as a masterpiece.
