<div>An &ldquo;extremely atmospheric and poignant&rdquo; novel of wounds that never heal and lives forever scarred by World War I (Books Monthly). They&rsquo;re called Whistlers&mdash;residents of a German hospital who have all been wounded in the throat, and whose every breath is punctuated with a high-pitched whistle. One young soldier, Pointner, has no hope for recovery. His only solace comes from the British sniper&rsquo;s cap he keeps as a trophy. Fellow casualty Kollin clings to the belief that he will be whole again. When an unlikely comrade joins them in the ward&mdash;the Englishman Harry, similarly injured but separated by allegiance&mdash;they find themselves bound, beyond the countries and crowns that have forgotten them, not only by their wounds but also by their common humanity.</div>
