A review by mollylou_
World War I Poetry by Wilfred Owen, Siegfried Sassoon, Edith Wharton, Rupert Brooke
3.0
Many of the poems in this book felt incredibly true, sad and chilling. Some of my favourites were; release, war girls, the man he killed, suicide in the trenches, the broken soldier, the target, and perhaps.
Especially from the poems where the poets died in battle, it made you understand the extent of the deaths and how the soldiers who died fighting were real. In the poem ‘Trenches, St Eloi’, you could feel how desperate war made people and how it changed the lives of everyone.
“There is nothing to do but keep on”.
