Sinopsis
A Fox under My Cloak (1954) was the fifth entry in Henry Williamsons fifteen-volume A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight spanning the years from the late Victorian period to the Second World War. It follows Phillip Maddison into the Great War, surviving in the face of terror, from the famous Christmas Truce of 1914 to the gas attacks of the Battle of Loos the following year. While home in England on sick leave Phillip obtains his commission into a fashionable regiment in which his social inadequacies make him the butt of his fellow officers scorn. Yet, alone among them, Phillip has tasted the bleak reality of life, and death, on the Western Front.
Williamsons style is romantic, though rarely sentimental, and his sensuous response to nature is fresh and surprising. Anthony Burgess, Ninety-Nine Novels: The Best in English since 1939
