The Great War: Stories Inspired by Items from the First World War by David Almond

3.0

This is a collection of short stories that are from the perspective of different characters that are affected in some way by WWI. They reflect on what the war is and what it means based on their contact with different objects related to the war. For some it is a family heirloom, others propaganda, and others it is what remains when the war is gone.

This is a great book to get insight from different and diverse viewpoints about the war. The objects are fascinating and give the reader insight as well. The pictures are also very informative even in their simplicity.
