En '¿Cuántas millas a Babilonia?', Jennifer Johnston nos presenta la historia de Alec y Jerry, dos jóvenes unidos por su amor a los caballos a pesar de sus diferentes orígenes sociales. En 1914, la guerra los lleva a alistarse, pero en bandos distintos: uno como oficial y otro como soldado. En los campos de Flandes, su amistad y lealtad serán puestas a prueba hasta el límite, cuando uno de ellos tome una decisión con consecuencias devastadoras. Esta conmovedora novela explora temas de amistad, clase social y los horrores de la guerra en un contexto histórico fascinante.
