Alice Winn: In Memoriam

Ein Tipp von Mira Scholz aus dem Buchladen Neusser Straße:Gaunt und Ellwood teilen ihre Faszination für Poesie und die alten Griechen. Doch wissen beide nichts von ihren Gefühlen für einander. Dann bricht der Erste Weltkrieg aus und Gaunt meldet sich bei der britischen Armee, um seine Familie vor anti-deutschen Angriffen zu schützen und seinen überwältigenden Gefühlen zu entkommen. Ellwood folgt ihm, doch ihre flüchtigen gemeinsamen Momente treffen auf die harte Realität des Krieges. Englisches Original! Und das sagt der Verlag dazu:It's 1914, and talk of war feels far away to Henry Gaunt, Sidney Ellwood and the rest of their classmates, safely ensconced in an idyllic boarding school in the English countryside. At seventeen, they're too young to enlist, and anyway, Gaunt is fighting his own private battle - an all-consuming infatuation with his best friend, the dreamy, poetic Ellwood - not having a clue that Ellwood is in love with him, always has been. When Gaunt's German mother asks him to enlist in the British army to protect the family from anti-German attacks, he signs up immediately, relieved to escape his overwhelming feelings for Ellwood.
