The Missing of the Somme
Author: Geoff Dyer
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307743233
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
The Missing of the Somme is part travelogue, part meditation on remembrance—and completely, unabashedly, unlike any other book about the First World War. Through visits to battlefields and memorials, Geoff Dyer examines the way that photographs and film, poetry and prose determined—sometimes in advance of the events described—the way we would think about and remember the war. With his characteristic originality and insight, Dyer untangles and reconstructs the network of myth and memory that illuminates our understanding of, and relationship to, the Great War.

Poems of Two Wars
Author: Laurence Binyon
Publisher: Unicorn Publishing Group
ISBN: 9780993331114
Category : World War, 1914-1918
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Laurence Binyon was a celebrated poet and art historian, who was a friend of both T. S. Eliot and Ezra Pound. Although over-age for military service in 1914, Binyon volunteered to serve on the front line as a medical orderly, an experience that directly informed his writing. Poems of Two Wars brings together for the first time the remarkable poems he wrote about both World War I and World War II. Binyon's 1914 poem "For the Fallen" is considered by many to be the single most famous poem written about World War I, and the poem is still read at remembrance services and carved onto thousands of war memorials. But Binyon's writings during the wars are substantial and as moving as his most well known works. Binyon not only wrote compelling poems about his time working in a battlefield hospital in France, but during World War II he penned some of the most powerful poems about the war written by a non-combatant, including "The Burning of the Leaves." Poems of Two Wars reveals the scope and intensity of Binyon's work and finally gives him his due as a skilled poet of some of history's most violent conflicts.
