Description
[Machine Translation] The best English novel about World War II. Guy Crouchback, a gentleman from an old Catholic family, has been living in seclusion in a villa in Italy since his failed marriage, but when Nazi Germany rises to power, he decides that now is the time to dedicate himself to the cause and returns to England. When World War II broke out, Guy campaigned for a place to enlist, but no one was willing to recruit a thirty-five-year-old middle-aged man with no military experience. He manages to find a contact and joins a traditional regiment as an apprentice officer, where he trains with Apthorp, who has returned from Africa, and other younger men... The first volume of Evelyn Waugh's classic "Sword of Honor" trilogy, which depicts the funny and grotesque biology of those caught up in the mechanisms of war in a dizzying mixture of serious speculation, wry satire, and sometimes slapstick laughter. Winner of the James Tate Black Memorial Award. First Japanese translation.
