Scholarly appraisal of the war fiction of the inter-war years & the approach of their authors, many of whom emerged bruised from the war. Includes, inter al, a lengthy discourse on Journey's End & its writer, R.C. Sherriff. Interesting but sometimes contentious & just a little careless (for instance, the author was unaware, when quoting The Victors by Peter Deane, that Deane was the pseudonym of Pamela Hinckson, daughter of the poet Katherine Tynan). Orig. dec. publisher's boards. VG & scarce. See illustration on our website.
