Now on the last section/book. Much of this is told by the voice of mark Tietjen`s wife/woman. It is interesting because she clearly doesn`t understand the English. She is a French peasant and has delusions of greatness. The whole thing has turned out to be an exceptionally good read.

Have just finished part 2, which I believe was originally a separate book No More Parades. This section deals exclusively with life at the front and a visit from Tietjen`s impossible wife, (more or less ex.) I am now well into the language and am finding it much easier to read and often very amusing. It is a very in depth comment on social and political thinking of the time, a very strong indictment of the Great war
