31 June, 1943. An RAF crew prepare for their next bombing raid on Germany. It is a night that many will never forget. Len Deighton's devastating novel is a gripping minute-by-minute account of what happens over the next twenty-four hours. Told through the eyes of ordinary people in the air and on the ground - from a young pilot to the inhabitants of a small town in the Ruhr - Bomber is an unforgettable portrayal of individuals caught up in the wreckage of war.

Eleştirmen yorumları

Probably the best and certainly the most accurate popular novel about the Second World War in the air. (John Sutherland)
A massively different novel... the effect is - quite literally - devastating.
A massive and superbly mobilised tragedy of the machines which men make to destroy themselves. Masterly and by far Mr Deighton's best. (Douglas Hurd)

Bomber is probably the best thing ever written about the wartime air campaign against Germany.

(Max Hastings)

A magnificent story ... the characters lean out of the pages.
What raises Deighton's genre to art is not only his absorbing characters but his metaphoric grace, droll wit, command of technical detail ... and sure sense of place. (Andy Solomon)

Well written and powerful. Doesn't seem to pull it's punches and is graphic in the areas it needs to be. The sufferings of people on both sides is explored to such an extent that I felt sorry for the loss of German night fighter and it's crew even though they had just scored hits on a British bomber. Excellent narration, not at all bombastic and flag waving. A book took make you think.

I read this book many years ago and remembered it as a 'good story'. Revisiting it as an audio book was a superb experience. Len Deighton's research, understanding of the technical aspects of flight, his ability to empathise with all concerned in a war is second to none. The reader was excellent too; I liked the way he kept himself secondary to his role, which was to present the story. He did the book justice, representing male and female characters from differing backgrounds and nations. It is a long book but I am resisting the temptation (so far) to listen to it again, back to back.
