Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks
5.0
This is such a hard-breaking read which follows Stephen from his time in France before the First World War. He’s a character that grows on you slowly. He makes choices which have repercussions and he finds himself without what he wanted.
We then move into the trenches of France and are introduced to some special characters. The trench life is horrendous and so well described and it pulls at all your heart strings. The relentless nature of warfare brings with it dangers and horrors for the men fighting.
As we move through the book the beautiful writing and captivating characters can reduce you to tears. The last part of the book was so emotional and left me without words.
I adored this one and loved reading it along with a small group of buddy readers which added so much more to the reading experience. Thanks to all of them. I’ve ordered Charlotte Gray from this author to read at a later date.
If you haven’t read this, I would recommend it, it’s a beautiful read but heartbreaking
