Recently I found myself searching for a copy with which to renew my acquaintance, stumbling across a reprint which I happily purchased online. I was pleasantly surprised the narrative had lost none of its power and poignancy with the passage of time. I'm not sure what makes this book what it is. Keith's wry humour? The intimacy of men in combat? Death, random and unexpected? Or the simple knowledge always behind the tale that the author survives the story but not the War? Pick up a copy if you can, and find out for yourself...
Highly recommended.
