hum and haw... hum and haw...
I really do not wish to make some advertisment if this is not allowed on this forum, but there is a very good set of books at a very good price at the moment and KS3 pupils do study WW I poetry at some point:
https://www.thebookpeople.co.uk/webapp/ ... collection" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I haven't seen the books to be honest but I like a good bargain and it is hard - actually extemely hard!- to resist this one (my hubby recommended 'no expenses during two months as we need to have some work done on hour home'). Shall I obey him or not? and we have no space on our shelves full of books ... and I have already 'up to the line to death - an anthology selected by Brian Gardner).
Here is the comment by someone who has this collection, giving it five starts out of five:

That makes obedience to DH even harder!
I have also a question for our dear German speakers forum members (maybe Amber would know?).
Some decades ago, for my German exam at the French Baccalaureat, I studied several texts by a well-known German author who wrote about WWI. His writings are not poems (if I remember well ) but striking short stories...
Does anyone have an idea of author?
