Most of this novel takes place not on the battelfield but back in the UK. Barker's intention was likely to show the war's effect on the common citizen. I enjoyed this but still think the first book in the series is the best. This is book two in the award winning Regeneration Trilogy. The series is a historical novel about World War One. Book one took place at Craiglockhart Hospital with Dr. Rivers and Siegfried Sassoon as the key characters; both these men were real, Dr. Rivers was a famous physiatrist who treated mental problems caused by the war and Sassoon was a famous poet of WWI.
This book features Dr. Rivers and the fictional character Billy Prior. Prior is an officer from the working class which made him feel he never fit in with the other officers. I found the information about the state of art of mental health knowledge and treatment interesting. In the book Barker goes into more detail of the changing class structure taking place in England with World War One.
Sassoon is featured briefly in the story along with a discussion of some of his poems. The book is well written and well researched. I am looking forward to book three in the trilogy. Peter Firth does an excellent job narrating the book. The trilogy predominantly features real life characters such as Dr Rivers and Siegfried Sassoon as well as imaginary characters such as Billy Prior. The series is set during World War One and covers the period starting within the first book from Sassoon's protest against the war up to the last book which ends as the war draws to a close.
The Eye in the door is character driven and centres primarily around Billy Prior and features themes around spying and being watched with the analogy of 'eyes' and the impact of of being watched and watcher considered throughout. In particular there is focus upon those who opposed the war and the impact upon them, their family and those who fought within the war I am very familiar with this book, although this is my first time listening. The trilogy is a favourite of mine due to me having an interest within World War One. I found the reader peter firth to be interesting and engaging and it was intriguing that the voices he used are very similar to the voices I had allocated to the characters when reading.
I enjoyed the deeper meaning held within the story as well as further understanding the trauma that war places upon all individuals who lived during this period. Despite knowing well events within this story I was engaged with the recording and found that I wanted to keep listening. This is an audiobook which I would recommend to anyone who has an interest within the First World War due to its impeccable research and attention to detail as well as to anyone who just enjoys a good character driven story.
Wonderful look at WWI, as well as the back stories of all those involved. Second in thr Regeneration trilogy and again just brilliant. It's important to read the first book to really know what is going on, although the real events behind the novel are detailed at the end of the book. Now onto book 3! This second book in the Regeneration trilogy is as good as the first. It conveys the horror of World War One with intimate observation of individual trauma while crafting a razor-sharp landscape of the social context in Britain. The prose is rich, satisfying and very amenable to narration.

All books in this trilogy are excellent and I learned things about the first World War that I had never heard of.
This is book two of the trilogy "Regeneration". The series explores the doctors and soldiers being treated for shell shock during World War I, especially the "conchies", conscientious objectors, and homosexuals. The doctors' job is to get them back in action. The series strength lies in the use of detailed, insightful psychological analysis conducted by the real life Dr. Rivers and the inter-relation between the various patents and Rivers' own mental states. Particularly moving and prominent in this book, is Rivers' fight against barbaric methods of treatment popular at the time.

And in , she yearns to be a grandmother but isn't sure she ever will be. Because Regeneration is a novel that focuses on the First World War , it explores many of the themes common to literature written during and following the war , including the cause and effects of war, the limits of ideologies like nationalism and masculinity, and both the medical and popular reactions to the psychological traumas created in the war. His approach is contrasted with the harsh treatment used by Dr. I think this is my favourite book of the trilogy. Johnson describes how contemporary society tends to make the casualties and experience of war more abstract, making it hard for non-combatants to imagine the losses.
