Sassoon documented trench warfare in poems soaked with pain. He confronted the reader with details of tedium and battle on the Western Front. He wrote with sarcasm on the motives of people in power and the absurdity of romantic views of war. He was masterful in capturing the language of soldiers and wartime trauma.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSassoon is one of sixteen World War I poets commemorated in the Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe images in this book complement Sassoon's poems and are in sympathy with his anti-war views. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes 44 war poems, 24 illustrations (color and BW), Foreword, and Index of First Lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 90\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.24 x 8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 11, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52637936910643,"sku":"9780999660461","price":25.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/FLvd4YkIpu9780999660461.webp?v=1762304083","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/sorrow-and-dismay-illustrated-anti-war-poems-of-captain-siegfried-sassoon-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
