Merchants Of Hope
Examines fictional recreations of the First World War in the interwar years and the phenomenal success of one play, "Sheriff's Journey's End". This work challenges the notion of a 'modern' memory generated by the First World War by arguing that middlebrow texts formulated a set of images and ideas that eclipsed the wartime upheaval.
