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. 650 0 World War, 1914-1918|zEngland|vFiction.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008113681 650 0 Man-woman relationships|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008107175 650 0 Country homes|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008100220 650 0 War neuroses|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85145190|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001562 650 0 Soldiers|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2008111377 650 0 Amnesia|vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects /sh2007100504 650 7 Man-woman relationships.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1007080 650 7 Country homes.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/881388 650 7 War neuroses.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1170516 650 7 Soldiers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1125233 650 7 Amnesia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/807812 651 0 England|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n82068148 |vFiction.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001562 651 7 England.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1219920 655 7 Fiction.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423787 655 7 Psychological fiction.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/genreForms/gf2014026492 655 7 Psychological fiction.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast /1726481 655 7 Domestic fiction.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026295 655 7 Domestic fiction.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1726589 655 7 Fiction.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms /gf2014026339 700 1 Hynes, Samuel,|d1924-2019,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n79132547|eauthor of introduction, etc. 830 0 Penguin twentieth-century classics.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n88540505 901 MARCIVE 20231220 948 |d20160930|clti|tlti-aex 994 C0|bRID
