Fiction & Literature; Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)

Powerful and moving bestselling fiction from one of today's greatest living writers.

Set before and during the Great War, Birdsong captures the drama of that era on both a national and a personal scale. It is the story of Stephen, a young Englishman, who arrives in Amiens in 1910. His life goes through a series of traumatic experiences, from the clandestine love affair that tears apart the family with whom he lives, to the unprecedented experience of the war itself.
