The Junkers and Other War Tales Review
A nuanced review of Read’s The Junkers as a moving postwar study of a German Junker family through a British diplomat. It ties the novel’s fragmentary narration to Suzi Strepper and the past, with themes of love, guilt, and moral crisis amid wartime shadows. It also surveys Shrimley’s The Candidates and Berry’s Flame and Slag, noting Shrimley’s inside look at Labour selection politics and Berry’s Welsh mining saga.
