About the book

Wilfred Owen's poetry is among the most powerful literary responses to the First World War. Drawing on his experience as a soldier on the Western Front, poems such as 'Dulce et Decorum Est', 'Anthem for Doomed Youth' and 'Strange Meeting' confront trench warfare, trauma, pity and the gap between patriotic rhetoric and battlefield reality. Owen's technical innovation and moral intensity transformed modern war poetry.
