This ground breaking blend of cultural history and close readings shows how modernism after 1914 emerges as a strange but important form of war writing, and was profoundly engaged with its own troubled history. Trudi Tate s a Fellow and Tutor of Clare Hall, Cambridge, and author of The Silent Morning: Culture and Memory After the Armistice (2013). 'Essential reading for anyone interested in modernist fiction and war writing.'-Jane Potter, Oxford Brookes University. 'This superb book opened up literary studies of the conflict to a range of issues and approaches that have since become crucial to the field'-Santanu Das, King's College London.
