From fiction, poems, non-fiction, plays and even graphic novels - there are so many angles and perceptions from which to read about this brutal yet important period of history. I find myself increasingly fascinated by history. Is it because as our elder generations move on, we become unconsciously worried that the next generation will never learn about the stories and the events that were important to their ancestors? Perhaps. I'm proposing to start reading a relevant book a month from September 2017 and in the meantime, I will start to compile reading ideas and seek to gain members who'd like to commemorate the Great War in this way.
