Regeneration

Am currently reading Pat Barker’s Regeneration, all about Siegdried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen and other fictional soldiers recovering at Craiglockhart War Hospital during WW1. I must admit to, shamefully, not knowing an awful lot about the ‘great’ war before reading Oxford University Press’ World War One: A Very Short Introduction. It so interested me that I immediately spent a Christmas book token on David Stevenson’s 1914-1918, which looks a beast of a read.

Here are some of the links I have been looking at, hunting down background information:

• Regeneration
• Pat Barker
• Wilfred Owen
• Siegfried Sassoon
• Craiglockhart War Hospital
• W. H. R. Rivers
• Robert Graves
