Beach red

Beach Red, by Peter Bowman, explores the agonizing experience of the soldier, specifically in World War Two, illuminating the emotional journey of the everyman in war. From the obscene to the Holy, Bowman in a slender volume of prose poetry pulls the reader into so compelling a world it is almost impossible to put Beach Red aside before reading it in one go. Do not be fooled, the book beckons again and again, passages demanding to be shared aloud with a kindred soul, new insights reveal themselves at every turn like a mystery of the human soul.
