About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
In the mud-soaked trenches, where the stench of death hangs heavy and hope flickers like a dying ember, Wilfred Owen stands witness. A soldier and a poet, he bares his soul in words that crackle with the electricity of truth. Owen's poems are not anthems of glory, but testaments to the brutal cost of war, etched with the unflinching honesty of one who has stared into the abyss. Prepare to be shaken, to grieve, and to remember, as Owen's powerful language drags you into the heart of the Great War, and lays bare the profound humanity that persists even in the face of its soul-crushing inhumanity.
Wilfred Owen
Wilfred Owen (1893-1918) was one of the leading poets of the First World War. His war poetry on the horrors of trenches and gas warfare was much influenced by his mentor Siegfried Sassoon and stood in contrast to the public perception of war at the time and to the confidently patriotic verse written by earlier war poets such as Rupert Brooke.
