Présentation de l'éditeur
This have I pledged by all the joys that are, When kings and crowds have liad their fill of War, And dust and darkness hold the hippodrome, Eftsoons to harness for the hills of home, Where, screened from the human cad and canaille brood, A kingly man may pander to his kingly mood. Truant and unrepentant, up and gone away, Strongly Ill stride me tlirough the changing day, Over the interfoldment of the dales. Over the roof of ridges, and the syke-land trails. By uncouth barrow, and still pagan croft, Now in the dimpled streamful ghyll, and now aloft Where leaden high ridge roads leap to a livid sky. Sour and solitary, royally will I. There to behold in August weather Empurpled jubilance upon the heather, With sumptuous purples such as close the day With regal glamour on the Western bay; Volcanic purples in the mid-day heats. Funereal purples as the day retreats, Full-pitched purples for a right full heart, And I a purple Caesar, arrogant, apart. There time is eased with sleek prophetic balm, And every second pearled with holy pregnant calm, That, passing, seems to promise paradise; Dawn, seen there, for heaven would suffice.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book encapsulates the horrors and psychological impact of the First World War. The author takes us on a vivid journey through the trenches, across battlefields, and into the minds of soldiers grappling with the brutality and absurdity of war. Through stark and unflinching prose, this book exposes the dehumanizing effects of mechanized warfare and explores themes of futility, sacrifice, and the fragility of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable suffering. The author does not shy away from the gruesome realities of trench warfare, and their accounts serve as a powerful indictment of the war's senselessness and waste. This book is a poignant and unforgettable testament to the resilience and indomitable spirit of those who endured the horrors of the Great War. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
