baker75 's review for:

Birdsong by Sebastian Faulks
5.0

It's about twenty years since I last read this but Birdsong has lost none of its power.
What resonated with me this time was Stephen Wrayford's struggle to hold onto a coherent sense of the world in the face of such annihilating horror. Alongside Pat Barker's Regeneration trilogy, this is one of the finest novels set in the First World War.
