Synopsis of The Widower's Son

En esta conmovedora novela de amor y guerra, Charlie Scorton, criado por un militar de carrera, intenta encontrar su lugar, tanto dentro como fuera del uniforme. Tras presenciar la muerte de su mejor amigo en la mina, Charlie decide unirse al ejército, lo que provoca su expulsión de casa por parte de su padre. Después de veinticuatro años recorriendo el imperio, regresa a casa, donde tiene un hijo. Tras la muerte de su esposa, Charlie se dedica a criar a su hijo, William, entrenándolo desde su nacimiento para ser artillero. William encuentra en el ejército el hogar que siempre anheló y se destaca durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, realizando actos heroicos en Dunkerque. Sin embargo, pronto se verá obligado a responder la pregunta que su padre nunca respondió: ¿qué hace un soldado cuando la guerra termina?

About the author

Alan Sillitoe

Alan Sillitoe

Alan Sillitoe FRSL was an English writer and one of the so-called "angry young men" of the 1950s. He disliked the label, as did most of the other writers to whom it was applied. He is best known for his debut novel Saturday Night and Sunday Morning and his early short story "The Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner", both of which were adapted into films.
