Drawing on the work of important wartime poets such as David Jones and Wilfred Owen  on the memoirs of Siegfried Sassoon  Robert Graves  and Edmund Blunden  and on numerous other personal records housed in the Imperial War Museum  this award-winning volume provides an intimate and intensely poetic account of the event that revolutionized the way we see the world. It has been hailed as \"humanly wise and compassionate\" (Saturday Review)  \"original and brilliant\" (Lionel Trilling)  \"bright and sensitive\" (The New Yorker)  and \"probing  sympathetic  and illuminating\" (The New Republic). It is an undisputed classic of cultural criticism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45495967744053,"sku":"ByrdShop_0195019180","price":51.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780195019186.jpg?v=1780904567","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-great-war-and-modern-memory-9780195019186","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
