A poignant and challenging novel that tackles the themes of forbidden (illegal in fact) homosexual love in post-WW1 England, the meaning of loyalty, true courage and commitment. Love and complex relationships are explored in this tale of intertwined lives damaged each in their own way by the horror of war in the trenches. The characters struggle with their yearnings against a backdrop of a conservative society that accepts neither homosexuals nor veterans.
