Ambrose Bierce era sargento quando as tropas da União, comandadas por Ulysses Grant, foram surpreendidas pelos Confederados em Shiloh, na margem errada do rio Tennessee. Bierce não descreve a batalha; descreve apenas o que viu! E o que viu (e ouviu) é, por vezes, aterrorizador, agoniante e emocionante, mas também excitante e até mesmo deslumbrante. E ele fá-lo com uma escrita que é económica, direta e honestamente crua. Como alguém disse, talvez este seja o maior libelo contra a guerra da literatura norte-americana!

Ambrose Bierce wrote realistically of the terrible things he had seen in the war in such stories as "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge", "A Horseman in the Sky", "One of the Missing", "What I Saw at Shiloh" and "Chickamauga". His grimly realistic cycle of 25 war stories has been called "the greatest anti-war document in American literature".At Shiloh, Bierce was a sergeant in C Company of the 9th Indiana in General Buell's army. "What I Saw of Shiloh", written in 1874 and twice revised in the following 35 years, is a recollection of his experience of the battle. Some scholars think "What I Saw of Shiloh" is Bierce's best work. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
