Seven Pillars of Wisdom 1935
Seven Pillars of Wisdom 1935 | T. E. Lawrence
1 post | 1 to read
As Angus Calder states in his introduction to this edition, 'Seven Pillars of Wisdom is one of the major statements about the fighting experience of the First World War'. Lawrence's younger brothers, Frank and Will, had been killed on the Western Front in 1915. Seven Pillars of Wisdom, written between 1919 and 1926, tells of the vastly different campaign against the Turks in the Middle East - one which encompasses gross acts of cruelty and revenge and ends in a welter of stink and corpses in the disgusting 'hospital'. in Damascus.

#FunFridayPhoto My all time favorite movie. On one of my first dates with Mr. KVR we saw the newly remastered print at the Imperial Theatre in Montreal. Afterwards we left the desert to find the city covered in a freshly laid blanket of snow - unforgettable. The 7 Pillars is still on my TBR.
