About this listen

A story from The Prisoner’s Defence, a collection of First World War short stories.

When Hugh Latimer is shot in the head during combat, he is not expected to survive. But he returns home a hero and is awarded the VC. As time moves on, though, it becomes clear that whilst he may have recovered physically, he has been dramatically changed psychologically by the war.

Written by H. C. McNeile as 'Sapper'.
