What Do I Read Next?
Paul Fussell's The Great War and Modern Memory (1975) earned accolades such as the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. It was also recognized by the Modern Library as one of the 100 Best Non-Fiction Books of the twentieth century. The book explores the impact of World War I on prominent writers like Graves, Siegfried Sassoon, and Wilfred Owen.
Graves's Good-Bye to All That (1929) is renowned as one of the most biting autobiographies ever written. It serves as a harsh critique of World War I and the military and political leaders who guided Great Britain during that era.
Wild Olives: Life in Majorca with Robert Graves (1995) by William Graves, and A Woman Unknown: Voices from a Spanish Life (2000) by Lucia Graves, provide insights into the author's life through the eyes of two of his children.
In 1937, soon after her husband's success with I, Claudius, Laura Riding released A Trojan Ending, her venture into classical historical fiction. Graves provided Riding with the essential historical details that served as the foundation for the book.
The collections Broken Images: Selected Letters of Robert Graves, 1914–1946 (1982) and Between Moon and Moon: Selected Letters of Robert Graves 1946–1972 (1984), both edited by Paul O’Prey, represent the first published compilations of Graves's extensive correspondence.
