About this listen

"Good-Bye to All That: An Autobiography" by Robert Graves is a seminal work that vividly captures the harrowing experiences of a young British officer during World War I.

Published in 1929, the book provides a candid and unflinching portrayal of life in the trenches, exploring the brutality and absurdity of war. Graves recounts his childhood, education, and early literary career, interweaving personal anecdotes with his wartime experiences. The autobiography delves into his friendships with notable figures like Siegfried Sassoon and critiques the societal norms of early 20th-century Britain. The title reflects Graves' profound disillusionment with the pre-war world and the irrevocable changes brought by the conflict.

With its clarity, wit, and honesty, "Good-Bye to All That" remains an essential work in the canon of war literature, offering insights into the personal and collective trauma of a generation.

Oh dear!

Whilst undoubtedly a classic, this audiobook was, unfortunately ruined by the narration. If Joel Shrink ever reads this review, please don’t take this personally but the publishers really should have had someone with an English accent reading this.

All time classic Great War memoir

Another fantastic story ruined by an American who as usual, has no clue about English pronunciations, accents, or military terms. A famous British memoir of the war, why would it be read by an American? Why?
