Title: Forever England Author: Mike Read Narrator: Mike Read Format: mp3 Length: 9 hrs and 12 mins Release date: 07-07-20 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: World War I Publisher's Summary: Forever England explores Rupert Brooke’s life, from schooldays to the Great War, and in so doing builds a remarkable picture of a long-lost England and a generation’s descent into war. Brooke’s poems emerge dramatically from a tangled web of love, friendship, mental illness and politics. He reveals also the existence of a previously unrecorded love child from a South Seas romance. The WW1 legend was largely brought about by the words of one of his sonnets: "If I should die, think only this of me/That there’s some corner of a foreign field that is forever England".
