   What's it like to read the return of the soldier?

   • "To read The Return of the Soldier for the first time is like diving straight into deep water", writes Sadie Jones, in her afterword to Rebecca West's short, taut novel about the losses of war, delivered not from the frontline but from the point of view of the ones surveying the wreckage back at home, and no less brutalising for it.

This novella can be read quickly, but contains lots of food for thought. Meh. The writing was good but I was pretty disappointed in the ending.
