Pat Barker's "Regeneration Trilogy" ("Regeneration", "Eye in the Door" and "Ghost Road") is a thoroughly enjoyable, beautifully written read. Ms. Barker did voluminous research on the times (WWI), people (writers Sigfried Sasson and Wilfred Owen, psychiatrist Dr. Wm Rivers, et al.) and events (involving shell shock, pacifism, psychiatry), and it shows. Her descriptions are poetic and achingly real, and her characters multi-faceted: funny, strange, broken, solid. She deftly weaves in symbolism and themes throughout her inventive structures. Although each of the books stands on its own (and Ghost Road won the Booker Prize), reading them in sequnce gives one a richer experience.
