He takes photographs from newspapers and popular magazines, and adds short lapidary verses to each in a unique attempt to understand the truth of war using mass media. Pictures of catastrophic bombings, propaganda portraits of leading Nazis, scenes of unbearable tragedy on the battlefield - all these images contribute to an anthology of horror, from which Brecht's perceptions are distilled in poems that are razor-sharp, angry and direct.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe result is an outstanding literary memorial to World War Two and one of the most spontaneous, revealing and moving of Brecht's works.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublished: UK, 2017\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublisher: Verso\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePages: 112\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLanguage: English\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN 13: 9781784782085\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eISBN 10: 1784782084\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bertolt Brecht","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43848598094090,"sku":"","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/products\/9781784782085.jpg?v=1668944553","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/war-primer","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
