The military philosophers

Powell, Anthony, 1905-20002005
Books, Manuscripts
|a Nicholas Jenkins has been posted to a War Office liaison section to work with the Allied armies. Absurdities coincide with horrors for the characters of 'A Dance to the Music of Time', especially in the shadowy secret services. |b A Dance to the Music of Time chronicles the lives of over three hundred characters, and is a unique evocation of life in twentieth-century England. It is unrivalled for its scope, its humour and the enormous pleasure it has given to generations. The Military Philosophers follows Nicholas Jenkins and a host of familiar and newer characters through the strains, absurdities and preoccupations of England at war.
