Synopsis:

The Trench Poets were soldier-poets dispatching their verse from the front lines of World War I. Known for its rejection of war as a romantic or noble enterprise, and its plain-spoken condemnation of the senseless bloodshed of war, Trench Poetry was one of the most significant literary movements of its decade. Above the Dreamless Dead is a moving and illuminating tribute to those who fought and died in World War I. Twenty poems are interpreted in comics form by some of today's leading cartoonists, including Eddie Campbell, Kevin Huizenga, George Pratt, and many others.
