Not a book... but a poem:
My grandpa ran away from home when he was 16yrs old, to another village in the Scottish borders where he wasn't known, so that he could join the army to fight in World War I.
~60yrs later, when I was also ~16, I studied *Strange Meeting* for my English Literature, school 'Higher' exam. I knew it well. Nothing has changed.#War #Fascism #Putin #Trump #Poetry #StrangeMeeting #WilfredOwen
