"Goodbye to all that" By Robert Graves.

In 1929, Robert Graves published his war novel "Goodbye to all that." It is based on his own life experiences of the Great War. This autobiography has been involved in "The great books controversy and changing attitudes towards the war." But in 1931, two years after this Great War book was published, Robert Graves wrote "P. S. Goodbye to all that." In this he justifies some of his actions and why he wrote parts of the novel …

…as "harshly accurate, it is a direct and factual autobiography." "Goodbye to all that" is a personal account of Robert Graves' experiences of World War 1. It gives us a great insight into the war and I believe "it is a serious and important war memoir" as described by Richard Graves. Bibliography 1. "Goodbye to all that" Robert Graves 2.
