My all-time favorite book about the war is Paul Fussell's seminal The Great War and Modern Memory.

Another really terrific book about the Great War, Rites of Spring: The Great War and the Birth of the Modern Age is currently up for vote at the book club for discussion later this month.

The lit book club has just read Vera Brittain's devastating memoir, The Testament of Youth. The discussion is ongoing, so there's plenty of time to catch up!
