Siegfried
Sassoon:
Soldier, Poet,
Lover, Friend
by Jean Moorcroft Wilson
Join us for a glass of wine here at Waterstones Piccadilly to mark
Armistice Day 2013 with renowned biographer
Dr Jean Moorcroft Wilson who will present a fascinating talk on the
iconic English poet and World War I soldier Siegfried Sassoon. Her
new book brings together previous work and recently discovered
material which will raise intriguing questions regarding the art of
biography. As the country prepares to honour the sacrifices of the Great
War generation in the centenary year 2014, this event will spotlight
Sassoon’s life, his poetry and the historical context.
