The Ghost at the Wedding by Shirley Walker
ISBN: 9780143203292 PUBLISHER: Penguin Books Australia FORMAT: Paperback PAGES: 256 PUBLICATION DATE: 3.05.2010 DIMENSIONS: 199mmX128mmX20mm 248grams
DESCRIPTION: In 1914, in the canefields of northern New South Wales, the young men couldn't wait to set off for the adventure of war. The women coped as best as they could, raised the children, lived in fear of being the next to receive an official telegram. They grieved their dead, and came to learn that for returned men there are worse things than death in combat. They bore more children to replace those lost in the First World War, and the sons were just the right age to go off to the second. The Ghost at the Wedding is like no other account of war, chronicling events from both sides - the horror of the battlefields and the women who were left at home. Shirley Walker's depictions of those battles - Gallipoli, the Western Front, the Kokoda Track - are grittily accurate, their reverberations haunting. Written with the emotional power of a novel, here is a true story whose sorrow is redeemed by astonishing beauty and strength of spirit.
