Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Voice of Jerusalem At the best it was not easy to work with the insistent dull booming of the guns from across the Channel, that unresting reminder Of civilisation in its agony Of dissolution; Of millions Of breaking hearts. The one compensation the war brought me I used to tell myself grimly was that it cut Off the bulk Of my callers from quartering themselves upon me for the night, for they were mainly aliens, friendly or neutral, and the coast was a prohibited area. The latest pilgrim bore a Polish name: I was to that extent safe. Perhaps soothed by this circumstance or some digestive process, I modified my harsh instruction to the parlourmaid.
