Recenzii

This is an invaluable contribution to our knowledge of both the poet and the war he so miraculously survived, to say nothing of our understanding of the poetry it produced.
John Greening's edition will stand as the authoritative one for many years to come. The editorial work in this new edition from Oxford University Press is outstanding ... The whole book, containing photographs and drawings presented within the text, is a delight to hold and compelling to read.
Almost certainly the most comprehensive treatment that Undertones has received ... Greening has tackled Undertones and its related texts with great thoroughness, and his book re-establishes beyond doubt the position of Blunden as a major war writer and Undertones of War as a major war book.
