Abafileyo bazola ngaphambi kweMfazwe Enkulu. Uluntu loluntu ngowokugqibela ukuqonda ukuba le meko yokucingelwa yinto eqhelekileyo iyingxenye ye-latency yemfazwe malunga nokuzibonakalisa. Ngokungakumbi xa babelindelwe yimfazwe yeemfazwe, olo ngquzulwano lokuqala olwalujamelene nawo onke amagunya ehlabathi amakhulu elo xesha. Ukungazi oko kwakuza kumema ubomi ukuba buqhubeke busenzeka ngokungathi akukho nto yenzekileyo, kodwa ngokubonakala kweqonga elikhethekileyo kumbukeli wangaphandle ofunda eli bali lomlingo nguHelen Simonson.
Kuba njengabafundi, ukujonga kweli bali kukungenisa iimvakalelo ezingaqhelekanga zothando lokuqala nolokugqibela, kwisenzo esinye, okanye kumbono wokuhamba kokugqibela okubonwa njengeyona ndlela ilula.
Safudukela kwisixeko esinomtsalane saseRye, kwindawo enoxolo kumazantsi eNgilani, sijongene nonxweme lwaseFransi apho ezinye iingxabano ezinkulu zemihla ezayo kweli bali zaziya kwenzeka, njengeDabi laseSomme.
Yaye kulapho sachitha khona iintsuku zokugqibela zehlobo lowe-1914, ngaphambi kokubhengezwa kwemfazwe eyayiza kuqhambuka ngoJulayi 28 neyayiya kuthi ngokuthe ngcembe isasaze loo mvakalelo yokungabi yokwenene kuzo zonke iimbombo zeYurophu yakudala.
I-protagonist yebali, uBeatrice Nash, imele umfazi okhululekileyo, ejikelezwe ziincwadi zakhe kwaye elayishwe ngeengcamango zokuguqula nayiphi na indawo adlula kuyo. eneneni yintoni echasene nemfazwe.
Ngalo naliphi na elinye ixesha langaphambili, intlanganiso phakathi kukaBeatrice noHugh Grange, umfundi wezonyango, ibinokonwatyiswa njengendawo yothando enothando kunye nezo ziguquguqukayo zanaphakade eziqhelekileyo zeentsuku zempumelelo. Kodwa sonke siyazi ukuba akunjalo, mhlawumbi eyona nto ilungileyo kubo kukuba abazange badibane ukuze babalekele imfazwe eyayisondela.
UBeatrice noHugh bayonwabela iintsuku ezimbalwa zokwazana kunye nokwenza imbonakalo yokuqala. Baziva ngathi bangabantu ababini abancinci nabakhululekileyo, ngakumbi ngokungafaniyo noluntu oluncinci olubonakala lunika iintandabuzo ezithile malunga nesimanje ukuba bobabini baphethe.
Ukuphela kwehlobo kuhlala kulixesha elibuhlungu ngeentsuku zewayini kunye neerozi apho ukukhanya kunye nokuphumla kubonakala kusisiseko sobomi bonke, kunye nobukrelekrele bolutsha obusele bubona ukuba aziyi kubakho ezinye iintsuku ezingcono.
Kodwa ukuthi ndizokubona kamva akufani nokuziva ndlela-ntle eqhutywa ziimeko ezibuhlungu zezo ntsuku xa iYurophu yayidaywe ngwevu okokuqala.
