About the book

David Jones's In Parenthesis is a modernist work based on his experiences as a soldier during the First World War. Blending poetry and prose, the book follows a group of soldiers from training through the Battle of the Somme. Jones combines frontline experience with references to mythology, medieval literature and Welsh tradition, transforming war into a complex meditation on history, memory and sacrifice.
