The most recent memoir, ‘Shrapnel’, was published for the first time in English in 2012.

Recensioner i media

Praise for William Wharton 'Wharton is exceptionally gifted' JOHN FOWLES 'William Wharton's search for meaning in personal tragedy is harrowing, courageous, and extraordinarily moving' - Hilma Wolitzer 'There are surprisingly few 'classic' novels of World War II, A Midnight Clear joins the best.' VILLAGE VOICE 'Brilliantly constructed, immediate and moving, painful and funny, and finally deeply cathartic' - San Francisco Chronicle
