Beschreibung
Head bowed, rifle on his back, a soldier is silhouetted against the going down of the sun,looking at the grave of a dead comrade, remembering him. A photograph from the war, is also a photograph of the way the war will be remembered. It is a photograph of the future,of the future''s view of the past.Geoff Dyer''s classic book is an original and personal meditation upon war and remembrance. It weaves a network of myth and memory, photos and films, poetry and sculptures, graveyards and ceremonies that illuminate our understanding of, and relationship to, the Great War.
