Answer:

The works of this famous writer pays homage to the brave soldiers that were killed in the war.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Homage" is an old English and also French word that means to show respect and gratitude for the efforts of someone, especially after the demise of that person. While the correct spelling of homage in French is 'hommage', the use of single 'm' in homage is more frequent and also accepted by most people. paying homage to a person is a means of showing respect and reverence to the person for whatever good deeds he/she must have done during her lifetime (if the person is already deceased) or even if s/he is still alive, it is to show respect and gratitude fro the efforts s/he had given for his/her fellow men.
