520 1  "World War I, in the background of Rebecca West's first 
       novel, was "the first war that women could imagine," 
       writes Samuel Hynes in his eloquent introduction, "and so 
       it was the first that a woman could write into a novel." 
       Narrated by a woman who, like West, has never experienced 
       war and yet for whom the war was very real, The Return of 
       the Soldier (1918) takes place not on a battlefield, but 
       in an isolated country house. It examines the 
       relationships between three women and a soldier suffering 
       from shell shock. This novel of an enclosed world invaded 
       by public events also embodies in its characters the 
       shifts in England's class structures at the beginning of 
       the twentieth century, as well as the choice between the 
       romantic past and the horrifying present, between love and
       reality"--Jacket.
