Is anyone else studying Wilfred Owen's War Poems? So far I have found no notes, resources or threads so I'm starting to think there's no one else doing it... If you know any links or useful resources please post here! :)

Yes - my school's studying this book :)

Awesome! Do you know if there are any study guides for it?

I really don't know. It's a text response, so there should be? I haven't looked for a study guide for it as yet because we're supposed to be studying it in the 2nd semester. I'm sorry I wasn't of much help.

Did this last year and LOVED it :D
Feel free to pm me if you want me to take a look at any essays or discuss anything :)
As for study guides, all i found was York Notes which i bought off ebay for like $6-7. Some pretty insightful things but it's for a different version of the text so it only has 'guides' for some poems, as well as poems not included in our edition (therefore you cannot talk about it)
Went to the VATE lecture on it as well and I really recommend it; the lecturer studied the text/author(Jon Stallworthy) extensively, had interviews with him, etc
*pm me for the free insight and VATE guides I found online (too big to upload) or you can try and find them yourself on google. My teacher also showed us things from slideshare.net (search the poem title) which are things other people have uploaded

For 2015 students interested in finding more resources for Owen, I have created a helpful blog!
It will feature poem analyses, practice essays and other helpful information.
