| Summary |
A study of the relationship between modernist fiction, the First World War, and cultural history: how did modernist writers bear witness to the trauma of the war? Tate argues that the critical distinction between modernism and war writing begins to dissolve, and modernism after 1914 emerges as a strange but important form of war writing |
