He has always been interested in encapsulating the insanity of conflict, and how it weighs on the mind of its participants. 'Retracting Claws' is an immersive dive into historical fiction, specifically the time of World War II, that shines a light on and reflects the loss of reason and hopelessness felt by soldiers in the final days of the war, and how they tried to come to terms with it. With a keen interest in the Second World War, Joshua Hickford paints an accurately detailed, vivid picture of life on the ground during the last weeks in the German frontline, taking his readers on an emotional journey that they won't be likely to forget. As well as moments of brutality, there are many moments of hope and human joy to be found within the chapters of this tale, even in a period of such misery.
