Recenzii
Review of the hardback: '… delicately nuanced, intricately subtle …' The Times Literary Supplement
Review of the hardback: 'Santanu Das has written an original, closely argued and highly detailed account of the way in which touch - the physical interaction with one's surroundings and one's fellow soldiers - defined the experience of the war and the ways in which it was recorded. … it is packed with original research and is uncommonly well written.' Daily Telegraph
Review of the hardback: 'Touch and Intimacy melds a wide range of sources into a brilliantly convincing whole. Methodologically, it makes use of a sophisticated and erudite mix of theory …' CLIO
'There are some beautiful and revealing passages of writing here …' The Ivor Gurney Society Journal
