This is the memoir of a man who went through a lot in his life. He was a writer of poetry and books. He served in WWI and came out of it a broken man. He was broken while in the service, but he did what he could to be okay and get back to the men.
The book is mostly about his wartime experiences, but the author spends a fair amount of time on his youth and his life afterwards as well.
There were times I found myself having trouble paying attention. Sometimes the writing was engaging and other times not so much. Overall, it was a glimpse into the trenches (a terrible place to be), but it wasn't the best thing I've read from the time period.
