Description: 'The letter bearer' is a Second World War novel unlike any other. It raises profound questions about trauma, guilt and the instinct towards desertion. The psychologies of conflict, the shifting landscape and the shattered cast of characters are portrayed, mirage-like and unforgettable, in Allison's vivid and powerful prose.
