Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - 'Secret Battle' is a powerful and harrowing exploration of the psychological disintegration of a soldier during the First World War. Written by A. P. Herbert, who drew from his own experiences in the Royal Naval Division, the novel follows the journey of Harry Penrose, a brave and idealistic young officer. From the grueling beaches of Gallipoli to the muddy, shell-torn trenches of the Western Front, Penrose faces not only the physical dangers of combat but an internal 'secret battle' against fear, exhaustion, and the slow erosion of his mental fortitude.Distinguished by its stark realism and profound empathy, this work stands as one of the most significant literary indictments of the military justice system of its era. It meticulously details the psychological toll of modern warfare, culminating in a tragic confrontation with the rigid codes of the British Army. 'Secret Battle' is celebrated for its authentic portrayal of soldier life and its early recognition of shell shock and the limits of human endurance. This poignant narrative remains a cornerstone of 20th-century war literature, offering a timeless meditation on the nature of courage and the heavy price of duty.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
