The narrative is by turns surprising and tragic in equal measure while its troubling conclusion will stay with readers long after they've closed the book Carlo GeblerThere aren't a lot of books that can break my heart. No matter how much I'm able to connect with the characters or find myself lost in the action, I don't make a habit of emotionally investing myself on such a visceral level. It's not something I make a conscience decision on, I just read so much that if I allowed myself to put my emotions into every book I read, I would be a basket case. But every once in a while, I can't help myself. I allow myself to fully invest in what I'm reading. I get so involved in the character's lives that I'm not able to keep those walls up.

Will has come to the decision that he can no longer morally support the war and the killing of other human beings... he lays down his weapons and refuses to fight... knowing that this action will be viewed as treason and he will most likely be executed. There is one final scene which plays out between Tristan and Will and the events which unfold will lead not only to Will's death ... but also to the grief and guilt which leave Tristan unable to find peace.It is this story which is at the heart of Tristan's visit to Marian... he wishes to share his guilt with her. What is never really clear to me is what he expects to receive from Marian... is it her understanding? Compassion? Forgiveness?Perhaps her anger? Or is it that he hopes to gain a better understanding of Will from the sister who was so close to him? Perhaps in the end, it was all of those things and maybe a desire to reassure Marian that her brother , in the end, had not displayed cowardice ..... but instead courage.I didn’t think it was all that great.” I pointed out. “In fact, if memory serves, it was bloody awful.” Este libro nos da otro enfoque de la vida del soldado durante la Gran Guerra. Ya no sólo de las terribles condiciones a las que se enfrentaron, de la locura de salir de las trincheras y avanzar a pecho descubierto, sabiendo que tu esperanza de vida se limita a lo sumo a unos pocos días, si no que nos introduce en el conocimiento de estos primeros "objetores" y además nos abisma en otro tema extremadamente duro, como es el tratamiento de la homosexualidad en la sociedad inglesa de la época.
