    A Son at the Front , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 711min
    What an incalculable sum of gifts and virtues went to make up the monster's daily meal. So observes American expatriate painter John Campton, whose only son is conscripted to military service in France at the beginning of WWI. In Edith Wharton's saga, A Son at the Front, we share the character's anguish as thousands of young men are sacrificed to the insatiable appetite of the war. The lessons are as relevant today as they were almost 100 years ago.      This recording includes, as afterword, an essay by war scholar Peter Buitenhuis, Edith Wharton and the First World War. This provides background and context to the narrative, and highlights Wharton's prodigious war charity work and remarkable war correspondence. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robin Siegerman.
