Edmund Blunden

on BBC Radio 3

1896-1974
The English poet. Edmund Blunden , was one of the most war-obsessed writers of our time and the echoes of the 1914-18 trench fighting are present in much of his later work. MARTIN BOOTH traces the pattern of these, illustrating the qualities of suppressed horror and poignancy they gave even to Blunden's more lyrical poetry.
