At first I thought that my uncle David (mentor) and my two cousins Andrew and Michelle and I should go‚ that didn’t work out

Although the poems Recalling War by Robert Graves and Mental Cases by Wilfred Owen are both concerned with the damage that war does to the soldiers involved‚ they are different in almost every other respect. Owen’s poem examines the physical and mental effects of war in a very personal and direct way - his voice is very much in evidence in this poem - he has clearly seen people like the ’mental cases’ who are described. It is also evident that Owen’s own experiences of the war are described: he challenges
