Only ghosts can live / Guy Morgan ; illustrated by John Worsley.
A memoir by British novelist and screenwriter Guy Morgan recounting his experience as a German prisoner of war from 1943 to 1944, towards the end of the Second World War. The first section describes how Morgan, a Royal Navy officer, was injured in a German attack off the coast of the Dalmatian Island of Lussin in November 1943, and captured as a result. The second section describes elements of day-to-day life as a prisoner of war through a number of 'documentary short stories', including food and black market trade, solitary confinement, camaraderie between the prisoners, and a 'glossary of gefangenschaft' (imprisonment). Includes two black and white plates and 28 black and white illustrations by John Worsley.
