Unconditional Surrender

More about the book

Unconditional Surrender is the final volume of Evelyn Waugh's masterful trilogy about war, religion and politics that began with Men at Arms and continued with Officers and Gentlemen. Guy Crouchback has lost his Halberdier idealism. A desk job in London gives him the chance of reconciliation with his former wife. Then, in Yugoslavia, as a liaison officer with the Partisans, he finally becomes aware of the futility and harshness of a war he once saw in terms of honour.
