Hibberd's biography, is particularly effective in communicating a
sense of its subject's shy charm.
*Literary Review*
Hibberd's biography provides a much fuller, more complex and
nuanced depiction of Owen than any available to his point.
*CHOICE*
Owen deserved—but has so far lacked—a definitive biography. Now it
is indisputably here.
*BBC History Magazine*
This rich, compelling, formidably researched enterprise...is the
fruit of half a lifetime's devotion to Owen's memory.
*Sunday Times*
Hibberd has probably done more than any other individual to
illuminate Owen's life and work...a triumph.... It is difficult to
believe it will ever be superseded.
*The Independent On Sunday*
Literary biography of the first order, splendidly written and
thoroughly documented.... Highly recommended.
*CHOICE*
Although Dominic Hibberd modestly says that his book 'is not, of
course, definitive,' it is hard to see how it could be improved
upon.
*Times Literary Supplement*
A magisterial biography.
*The New York Times*
Hibberd is the world's foremost authority on this soldier-poet, and
his new biography is full of reliable information, intelligent
judgements.
*Richmond Times-Dispatch*
