[edit] MISSING OF THE SOMME
Relying more on personal impressions than systematic analysis, the author weaves a network of myth and memory that illuminates our own relation to the past. This work is a memorial to those that lost their lives in the Great War.
'Head bowed, rifle on his back, a soldier is silhouetted against the going down of the sun, looking at the grave of a dead comrade, remembering him. A photograph from the war, is also a photograph of the way the war will be remembered. It is a photograph of the future, of the future's view of the past. We will remember them.' Relying more on personal impressions than systematic analysis, Geoff Dyer weaves a network of myth and memory that illuminates our own relation to the past.
