There is little to say other than I loved this book. A little fiction, a little history lesson and a great piece of writing using the cleaverness of letters, especially for all of us who belong to book groups!

Pat Barker has returned to the subject she knows best...WWI. It is 1914 and Barker tells the tale of three art students and their naivete at the beginning of the war to end all wars. The reader gets fleeting glances of real life characters from 20th century London and the gripping power of true nationalism.
