Another book I listened to at work. I use the site librivox.org to get audiobooks of books that are in the public domain so they are free. They are read by volunteers so they are not always the best but this book was read by a reader that I've listened to before and she's quite good. I was browsing through the catalog of books on librivox and came across this one. I'd never heard of this book or author before but I thought I'd give it a try.

This book was pretty good. It's about an Englishman who is wounded while fighting in WWI. He gets amnesia and can't remember anything about the last 15 years of his life, including his wife or young son that died. He does however remember the woman he was in love with when he was younger who is now married to someone else. It's about all of them dealing with him and his state of mind, etc. It's pretty interesting and is a fairly short book.
