"This is a new publication of a collection of letters which Gurney wrote from the Western Front in WWI. Although the facts of Gurney's life are undeniably tragic, he managed to find great enjoyment in his friendships. That aspect of his life remained in the shadows as no documentary evidence had been found to support it, but the discovery of his letters to the Chapman family restores the balance. These letters give us a previously unrevealed insight into the courage, humour and warmth of his personality in the years prior to 1922 when Gurney was committed to an asylum until his death. 'Stars in a Dark Night' is Gurney's own description of the Chapmans' letters to him during the war, complemented with photographs, documents and manuscript pieces."@en . . . .
