Reseñas
El Dec 5 2017, The Old Library Bookshop dijo:
The title refers to one who is not just a conscientious objector, but rather one who "...won't do anything at all to further the war effort. Won't fight, won't help those who are fighting, won't work in a hospital or come to the aid of the wounded," according to a sergeant in this novel with World War I as the background. The book's narrator is Tristan Sadler, and the absolutist is his friend/lover Will Bancroft. Will has died in shame as the novel opens, and Tristan seems to be suffering from what would now be designated PTSD. But it is not the horrors that he has witnessed that causes Tristan's trigger finger to quiver uncontrollably. Heroism and honor and their opposites, shame and betrayal, are explored in many varieties in this novel.
