Book review: Louisa Young’s ‘My Dear I Wanted to Tell You’

Known to children around the world for the best-selling Lionboy series (written with her daughter under the name Zizou Cor­der), Louisa Young makes use of her abundant storytelling gifts in her first novel for adults: “My Dear I Wanted to Tell You,” a moving tale of men and women tested to their limits by World War I.
