Goodbye to All That
|
|
(1929) Vivid and provocatively down-to-earth account by Robert *Graves of his first 30 years. Though it includes life at a *public school (Charterhouse) and at Oxford in the 1920s, it is mainly set in the trenches and is best known for its account of the horrors of war. The disillusioned author explains his title in the last sentence: 'So I went abroad, resolved never to make England my home again.'
