The violence of the front feels far away to Henry Gaunt, Sidney Ellwood and the rest of their classmates, safely ensconced in their idyllic boarding school in the English countryside. News of the heroic deaths of their friends only makes the war more exciting. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eGaunt, half German, is busy fighting his own private battle--an all-consuming infatuation with his best friend, the glamorous, charming Ellwood--without a clue that Ellwood is pining for him in return. When Gaunt's family asks him to enlist to forestall the anti-German sentiment they face, Gaunt does so immediately, relieved to escape his overwhelming feelings for Ellwood. To Gaunt's horror, Ellwood rushes to join him at the front, and the rest of their classmates soon follow. Now death surrounds them in all its grim reality, often inches away, and no one knows who will be next. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn epic tale of both the devastating tragedies of war and the forbidden romance that blooms in its grip, \u003ci\u003eIn Memoriam \u003c\/i\u003eis a breathtaking debut.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eALICE WINN grew up in Paris and was educated in the UK.
