Poets of the Great War

‘The truth untold,/ The pity of war, the pity war distilled…’

Here are the extraordinary writings of a generation who fought through a war of unprecedented destructive power, and who had to find new voices to express the horror of what they discovered.

The great names - Owen, Sassoon - are fully represented, but there are also many poems by lesser-known or unexpected figures.
ranging from serving soldiers like Isaac Rosenberg and Richard Aldington to women such as Edith Nesbit and Vera Brittain.

The poems are arranged by theme to give a sense of how the writers’ feelings and attitudes evolved.

Jenna Jameson - Chicago Tribune
Because many have been quick to write Chuck Palahniuk off as the literary equivalent of a shock jock, his books are often treated as pulp fiction, but in truth his fiction has always had a deep layer of social satire beneath the gore of it all.

Marlo Thomas - Chicago Tribune
That emphatic, empathetic baritone voice, still familiar after all these years, echoes off the walls of the penthouse apartment. ” ‘A gun smokes only after it’s fired,’ ” Phil Donahue says, his voice rising in volume until it’s booming with anger

Angela’s Ashes

Sunday, May 25th, 2008 by Book Guy | No Comments »

When I look back on my childhood, I wonder how I survived at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood.

People everywhere brag or whimper about the woes of their early years, but nothing can compare with the Irish version: the poverty; the shiftless loquacious father; the pious defeated mother moaning by the fire; pompous priests; bullying schoolmasters; the English and the terrible things they did to us for eight hundred long years. Above all we were wet…’

So begins Frank McCourt’s stunning memoir of his childhood in Ireland and America, a recollection in Ireland and America, a recollection of unvarnished truth and no self pity, of grinding poverty and indomitable spirit that will live in the memory long after the tracks have ended.
