Good Sons A Novel Of The Great War
Anbieter: Book Haven, Wellington, WLG, Neuseeland
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Greg Hall has written Good Sons to highlight the impact of war on ordinary people. In this case, three friends from Oamaru. The story is told by Frank Wilson from his schooldays and adventures as a young boy, to the battlefields of Europe. The detail of his life is minutely drawn. My 90-year-old Father was quite taken by the descriptions of ordinary life: going camping, riding bikes, playing rugby and the importance of family life. While Frank and his best mates, Tom Davis and Robert Sutherland eagerly await their birthdays so they can sign up, we read small press clippings at the start of each chapter detailing the progress of the war. These are at times shocking in their paternalistic and biased interpretation of events. It is a clever device to contrast the reported and the real. 293 pages. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 1591849
