Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Edward Glass’s narration is nothing short of exceptional, lending a gravitas that perfectly matches the somber tone of this audiobook. The pacing is well-judged, with moments of intense emotion interspersed with quieter, reflective sections. Glass's ability to modulate his voice for different characters ensures that even the most subtle nuances of Sassoon and Owen’s poetry are not lost on the listener. However, at times, the narrative can feel a bit too academic, which might distract some listeners from fully immersing themselves in the stories. Overall, this is a powerful and thought-provoking listen that anyone interested in war literature or the psychological impact of conflict should consider.
