Birdsong A Novel of Love and War

<b>#1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER • A mesmerising story of love and war spanning three generations and the unimaginable gulf between the First World War and the 1990s<br><br></b>In this "overpowering and beautiful novel" (<i>The</i> <i>New Yorker</i>), the young Englishman Stephen Wraysford passes through a tempestuous love affair with Isabelle Azaire in France and enters the dark, surreal world beneath the trenches of No Man's Land. Sebastian Faulks creates a world of fiction that is as tragic as <i>A Farewell to Arms</i> and as sensuous as <i>The English Patient, c</i>rafted from the ruins of war and the indestructibility of love.
