Produced by Susan Skinner, Peter Vachuska, Chuck Greif and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Waiting for Daylight" by H. M. Tomlinson is a novel written in the early 20th century, likely around the time of World War I. The story explores the existential reflections and emotional turmoil of its protagonist, who grapples with the absurdities and tragedies of war, particularly during his return to familiar settings that now feel estranged and haunted by memories of conflict. Through vivid imagery and inner monologues, the book captures the profound disconnection felt by those who have lived through the horrors of warfare. The opening of the novel introduces a bleak atmosphere in Ypres during July 1915, as the narrator observes the ruins of the city, evoking a sense of isolation and hopelessness. Amid the backdrop of war, the narrator encounters a soldier who provides a brief respite from the chaos, leading to reflections on the nature of existence and the futility of war. The narrative moves from the intense cacophony of the battlefield to the soft, melancholic realization of a world transformed by conflict, indicating the deep psychological impacts on both soldiers and civilians. The tone invites readers to contemplate the broader implications of conflict on personal identity and societal norms as they wait for the elusive promise of daylight—or peace—after the darkness of war.
