A fantastically, well- written book. Regeneration offers readers an honest yet harrowing depiction of “wartime neurosis” and the early conventions of male mental during the early 20th century. Not only does Pat Barker present the complex beliefs that men developed towards Britain’s war effort, she also presents their mental struggle as they struggle to reconcile their experiences in the psychiatric hospital of Craiglockhart. A deeply addictive book to read that is very accessible. It had intrigued me enough to want to read the second and third instalment’s of the Regeneration trilogy. Would highly recommend!
