Product Information

The unprecedented magnitude of death during World War I forever altered how people perceived their world and how they represented those perceptions. In Postcards from the Trenches, Allyson Booth traces the complex relationship between British Great War culture and modernist writings. She shows that, through the experience of the Great War, both civilian and combatant modernist writers found that language could no longer represent experience. She goes on to identify and contextualize several of the resulting modernist tropes: she links the dissolving modernist self to soldiers' familiarity with corpses, the modernist mistrust of factuality to the apparent inaccessibility of facts regarding the "rape of Belgium," and the modernist interest in multiple viewpoints to the singularity of perspective with which generals studied battlefield maps. Though her emphasis is on literary works by Robert Graves, E.M. Forster, and Vera Brittain, among others, Booth's analysis extends to memorials, posters, and architecture of the Great War. This interdisciplinary quality of Booth's study results in a much deeper understanding of how the Great War affected cultural representations and how that culture represented the War.

Reviews
"This is some of the most interesting interdisciplinary work on World War One--or on any subject, for that matter--that I have seen. It is an important 'sequel' to Fussell's still influential Great War and Modern Memory, except that Booth's book, which is on modernist memory, sheds much morelight on the particularities of modernism. Throughout, this book offers stunning readings of individual texts or moments."--Susan Schweik, University of California, Berkeley, "Postcards from the Trenches makes a valuable contribution to the cultural mapping of the impact Great War had on the consciousness of those who experienced this technological mass slaughter either as combatants or civilians."--English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920, "Booth's book is compelling...Her arguments are complex andconvincing....Postcards from the Trenches will stand as a major contribution tothe field."--International Review of Modernism, "This is some of the most interesting interdisciplinary work on World War One--or on any subject, for that matter--that I have seen.
