From one of Canada’s cherished performing artists comes an audacious non-fiction work that delves into the stories that shape us and the lasting impact of the past across generations. Growing up north of Toronto, R.H. Thomson was captivated by romantic notions of war, playing with toy soldiers and recreating battles in his imagination. However, his childhood was also influenced by the real-life experiences of his family members who fought in wars. Eight of his great uncles served in the First World War, while his great aunt worked as a surgical nurse in Europe. Tragically, five great uncles lost their lives in battle, and two returned home profoundly affected, suffering from the long-term consequences of war. Their letters home provide deep insights into their experiences, revealing the true human cost of conflict. In this work, Thomson examines his family’s history and the broader implications of war, exploring military history, art, literature, and science. He advocates for new ways to honor the fallen through “The World Remembers,” a project aimed at naming each individual killed in the First World War. This epic yet intimate exploration challenges our understanding of history and the impact of war on lives.
