"In Life Class, Pat Barker returns to her most renowned subject: the human devastation and psychic damage wrought by the First World War on all levels of British society.

"In het voorjaar van 1914 komt een groep studenten aan de Slade School of Art samen voor een modelklas tekenen. Paul Tarrant wordt al snel afgeleid door de intrigerende studente Elinor Brooke. Hij is echter niet de enige die zich tot haar aangetrokken voelt en Elinor wordt het charismatisch centrum van een liefdesdriehoek. De oorlog is aanvankelijk niet meer dan een ver rumoer op Het Continent, maar het gedruis komt dichterbij en betrekt ook de kunststudenten. Paul meldt zich als vrijwilliger voor het Belgische Rode Kruis, een wereld die ver verwijderd is van zijn dagen op de academie. Hij gaat zichzelf en de groep kunstenaars, waartoe ook zijn geliefde behoort, zien als verwende, zelfingenomen kinderen. Modelklas toont de kloof tussen degenen die de hel van de oorlog kennen en zij die veilig buiten schot zijn gebleven. Bron: Flaptekst, uitgeversinformatie."

"A novel capturing the devastation and psychological trauma of the Great War on every level of British society focuses on a group of young art students, including Paul Tarrant, a Red Cross volunteer, who discovers that life, love, and art will never be the same."
"In the Spring of 1914, a group of students at the Slade School of Art have gathered for a life-drawing class. Paul Tarrant is easily distracted by an intriguing fellow student, Elinor Brooke, but watches her from afar when a well-known painter catches her eye. After World War I begins, Paul tends to the dying soldiers from the front line as a Belgian Red Cross volunteer, but the longer he remains, the greater the distance between him and home becomes. By the time he returns, Paul must confront not only the overwhelming, perhaps impossible challenge of how to express all that he has seen and experienced, but also the fact that life, and love, will never be the same for him again."
