The poetry of the First World War has come to dominate our
understanding of its literature, while genres such as the short
story, which are just as vital to the literary heritage of the era,
have largely been neglected. In this study, Ann-Marie Einhaus
challenges deeply embedded cultural conceptions about the
literature of the First World War using a corpus of several hundred
short stories that, until now, have not undergone any systematic
critical analysis. From early wartime stories to late
twentieth-century narratives - and spanning a wide spectrum of
literary styles and movements - Einhaus's work reveals a range of
responses to the war through fiction, from pacifism to militarism.
Going beyond the household names of Owen, Sassoon and Graves,
Einhaus offers scholars and students unprecedented access to new
frontiers in twentieth-century literary studies.
