"The Return of the Soldier" is Rebecca West's 1918 novel of the struggle of a WWI veteran, Chris Baldry, who is shell-shocked with amnesia, to return home and make sense of the life that he had before he went to war, a life that now he can't entirely remember. This dramatic novel shows with great heart, that the horrors of war are not always left on the battlefield.
