Apart from obvious non-fiction books about war, aspects of concflict are often found in books. Here is a selection where the military features in some way or other.

Wilbur Smith – The Burning Shore is set in World War One on the Western Front before the story moves to South West Africa (Nambibia) and Africa. Saša Stanišiç – How the soldier repairs the gramaphone looks at the impact of the Bosnian conflict on family life

From TSL authors: Sai-Ko by Gabriela Harding – an Eastern European Army conscripts a young man in the short story Army of Angels Musings of an Inadequate Golfer by Malcolm Allen – talks about British army life in the late 18th century when life was less politically correct than it is today. A little piece for mother by Barbara Towell – Nazi Germany plays a role here. This book is not published by TSL. The Celebration Husband by Maya Alexandri – set in World War 1 Africa at the start of the war. Powerless by John Samson – has two men coming to terms with their past, one of whom was conscripted into the South African Army under Apartheid.

For books on World War 1 in Africa, see the GWAA imprint for those published by TSL or visit the Great War in Africa Association for a wider range.

A consequence of war is displacement seen in the form of refugees. Wilbur Smith’s The Burning Shores touches on refugees as does Irene Nemirovsky’s Suite Francaise. People Not Borders’ I am Me tells of how a young refugee experiences a new life after the turmoil.
