Dutch Medical Historian, Leo Van Bergen, shows his evident passion and knowledge of the First World War in these two books.
Cap of Horror is a bilingual anthology of the poetry of nurses and other women workers of WW1 and Among The Dying is a collection of 25 fictional short stories detailing aspects and experiences of the war.
With Cap of Horror, Van Bergen has handled the material sensitively, giving a background to each female writer and giving his interpretation to the words. It's a must for any lover of WW1 poetry and Women's History.
Among The Dying is a collection of 25 fictional stories where Van Bergen illustrates his depth of knowledge as he attempts to get to the heart of the experiences and emotions of WW1. Both books are definitely worth reading and it is intensely interesting to read the views from a Dutch author and his insights in to the writing of females during the war.
