Maybe that war is not heroic or glorious. Testament of Youth is an autobiographical memoir (not a novel) of a priveleged young woman who becomes an army nurse during WW!–a bloodbath of trench warfare–and emerges as a strong Christian pacifist. She tells the story of the loss of an entire generation’s youth and innocence to the tragedy of World War I.
