Regeneration by Pat Barker, the first of her World War I trilogy. Yesterday the book appeared on my daily picks. When I saw it was about poet Siegfried Sassoon, I figured for $1.99 I could not go wrong. It's based on Sassoon's breakdown in the war and the recuperation he had where he met poet Wilfrid Owen. Sassoon's friend, poet-author Robert Graves also plays a role.
The poetry I featured yesterday can wait.
