Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Journey's End, a Novel' is a powerful prose adaptation of R. C. Sherriff's seminal play, co-authored with Vernon Bartlett. Set in the claustrophobic and harrowing environment of the British trenches in France during World War I, this narrative captures the psychological strain and raw reality of men awaiting their fate. The story follows Captain Stanhope, a young but battle-worn commander who has turned to drink to cope with the horrors of the front, and the arrival of Raleigh, an idealistic young officer who once idolized him.Through poignant dialogue and intense character studies, the novel explores themes of courage, loyalty, and the devastating impact of prolonged conflict on the human spirit. As the threat of a massive German offensive looms, the interpersonal dynamics between the officers-including the stoic Osborne and the terrified Hibbert-reveal the diverse ways individuals process fear and duty.

In happy recollection of our associations and work together in the film of this play, from Bob Sherriff, Esher, Surrey, 19 Aug 1930". R. C. Sherriff (1896-1975) left school in 1914 and began working as an insurance clerk. Conscripted as an officer in the 9th Battalion of the East Surrey Regiment, he took part in the battles of Vimy Ridge and Loos, and was seriously wounded at Passchendaele in 1917. He returned to work as an insurance adjuster from 1918 until 1928 and his seventh and most successful play, Journey's End was based on his wartime experiences. It premiered on 9th December 1928, directed by James Whale and starring the 21 year old Laurence Olivier. A film version was released on 14th April 1930, again directed by Whale and produced by Gainsborough Pictures, a company set up by Michael Balcon (1896-1977), Graham Cutts and a young Alfred Hitchcock.

His daughter Jill married Cecil Day-Lewis, making him the grandfather of Daniel Day-Lewis. …
