Nor The Years Condemn

Nor The Years Condemn by Robin Hyde is a General Fiction title available in paperback book format. This beautifully presented new edition of Nor the Years Condemn brings Robin Hyde's important novel back into print. First published in 1938, Nor the Years Condemn explores the experiences of returned servicemen and women in the aftermath of World War I. Through the story of Douglas Stark, Hyde vividly portrays the disappointment and disillusionment of veterans who return to a New Zealand that falls short of the ideals they fought for. Far from the promised 'land fit for heroes', the nation grapples with the social upheaval and economic hardship of the 1920s and 1930s. Hyde's novel poignantly captures the emotional and societal challenges faced by those trying to rebuild their lives in a world that no longer seems to recognise their sacrifice. With cover art by Gretchen Albrecht and a preface by Genevieve Scanlan, this edition invites readers to revisit-or discover for the first time-a classic from one of Aotearoa New Zealand's most cherished literary voices.

Ideal for readers interested in general fiction.
