Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : New. Etat de la jaquette : New. 1st Edition. When the first bombs fell on London in August 1940, the city was transformed overnight into a battlefront. For most Londoners, the sirens, guns, planes, and bombs heralded grueling nights of sleeplessness, fear, and loss. But for Graham Greene, Elizabeth Bowen, and some of their contemporaries, this wa a bizarrely euphoric time when London became the setting for passionate love affairs and surreal beauty. As the sky whistled and the ground shook, nerves were tested, loyalties were examined, and infidelities begun. The Love-Charm of Bombs is a powerful wartime chronicle told through the eyes of five prominent writers: Greene, Bowen, Rose Macaulay, Henry Yorke (who wrote as Henry Green), and the Austrian exile Hilde Spiel. Volunteering as ambulance drivers, firefighters, and air-raid wardens, they were the successors to the soldier-poets of the First World War. Their stories have never been told. Now, opening with a meticulous evocation of a single night in September 1940, literary historian Lara Feigel interweaves letters, diaries, and fiction with official archives to chart the history of a "burning world" in wartime Europe. Like sensitive recording instruments, these writers experienced their time with a special intensity and rendered it in diaries, letters, and stories with a haunting eloquence. By tracing the ecstatic, febrile, often wrenching stories of these interconnected writers, Feigel taps into the high-voltage current of war, and presents this time and place as we have never quite seen it before.
