The story of Dorrigo Evans was very well-reviewed by Linda, here.
Winner of the 2014 Man Booker prize (the best novel written in English and published in th UK) for 2014. I listened to the audiobook version for most of this story, though as I often do when a book is compelling and I can't wait to hear how it goes, I read quite a bit of it, too. I found narrator David Atlas to be very good reader and heard his voice in my head when reading the text.
A compelling tale of shocking brutality in a Japanese prisoner-of war camp and lost love. A great read for those who love comples characters, and great storytelling, and who are not put off by graphic violence.
By the author of the excellent Gould's Book of Fish.
