Deep in the mud, stench of the Somme, Bourne is trying his best to stay alive. There he finds the intense fraternity of war and fear unlike anything he has ever known. Australian poet Frederick Manning's autobiographical novel was first published anonymously in 1929 due to the brutal honesty with which he wrote about the horror, the boredom, and the futility of war.
