Craiglockhart, Scotland, 1917. In a hospital for shell-shocked
officers, a brilliant doctor provides the cures required to send
his patients back to War. Under his tolerant reign, two young
officers form a passionate comradeship. Each is a poet, one
unknown, the other privileged and successful. Mentored by the older
man, the younger falls in love; his genius flowers and he becomes
the greater writer. But as his health is restored, he must face a
return to battle. ** "Nicholas Wright's deeply moving play stays
true to Barker's vision while highlighting its own chosen themes of
companionship, guilt and inequality" Michael Billington, Guardian
"I was raptly absorbed throughout by this superb stage version of
Pat Barker's award-winning First World War novel...gutting and
unmissable" Paul Taylor, The Independent
