Samenvatting

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Edith Wharton delivers a stunning, poignant tale that skillfully explores the psychological and cultural influences on human behavior during the early years of World War I. The profoundly moving story follows the shattered lives of distraught parents left behind as their son enlists to fulfill his military duty. Expatriate American painter John Campton battles to keep his only son, George, away from the front while considering the moral implications of his actions. Inspired by her volunteer work in France during World War I, Edith Wharton's remarkable war novel, originally published in 1922, presents an evocative portrait of sorrow and grief and remains a powerful exploration of parental and filial love and tragedy.
