The memoir documents not only his own personal experience, as a patriotic young officer, of the horrors and disillusionment of battle, but also the wider loss of innocence the Great War brought about. By the time of his writing, a way of life had ended, and England and the modern world would never be the same. In Graves's portrayal of the dehumanizing misery of the trenches, his grief over lost friends, and the surreal absurdity of government bureaucracy, Graves uses broad comedy to make the most serious points about life and death.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eRobert Graves (1895-1985) was a poet, novelist, translator, and author of more than 120 books of history, mythology, and fiction, including the historical novel \u003ci\u003eI, Claudius\u003c\/i\u003e and the mythological study \u003ci\u003eThe White Goddess\u003c\/i\u003e.
