A Century of November is the new novel by W.D. Wetherell. It?s set at the end of World War One and tells the story of a Canadian apple farmer, whose son is killed in the war. He decides to go to the front lines himself, to see the spot where his son died. It?s almost a literal descent into hell, to the devastated battlefields of the Great War.
