Penguin Modern Classics All Books Editorial Review
In "Goodbye to All That", Robert Graves provides an unsentimental account of his experience during World War I. The book is characterized by dark humor, eye for the absurd, and satirical writing in spite of the abominable conditions of the fighting trenches. The autobiography is also an introduction to many historical figures of Graves' time, lending a greater understanding of his poetry. Although the book covers the horror of war, Graves also writes about the bravery, differences between infantry units and the aftermath of WWI. Despite experiencing the tragedies of war, Graves kept some decency about him and humor is evident throughout the book. The author’s love of the natural world contrasts with the devastation of war. Overall, the book is truthful, direct, unvarnished, and beautifully written.
