British Writing of the Second World War (Hardcover)

British Writing of the Second World War investigates representations of violence and the relationship of imaginative literature to propaganda and politics. A wide-ranging survey of familiar and forgotten wartime writers, it focuses in greatest detail on the Blitz, military aviation, North Africa, war aims, POWs and the Holocaust. The book theorizes the role of culture in the prosecution of war, gives a richly-textured historical account of contemporary responses to Britains Second World War, and provides a substantial bibliographical resource for future research.
