Synopsis
Pat Barker was born in 1943, and is one of England's most important contemporary novelists. This final novel in the Regeneration trilogy won the Man Booker prize in 1995 for the sensational title, The Ghost Road . Set in the final months of World War 1, the horror and futility are seen through the eyes of two main characters; Dr. Rivers, a neurologist who treated shell shock victims and Billy Prior, a fictional bisexual soldier who returns to battle after treatment. Through these protagonists, the novel probes how humans deal with death while focusing on the aftermath of trauma. This beautifully constructed story spares the reader nothing in the depiction of this powerful and graphic antiwar novel. Man Booker Prize, 1995
