All Quiet On The Western Front
1975 trade cloth edition in good condition. Dust jacket. Red painted top edges are faded. Book Club Edition. Mylar cover included.
“We are forlorn like children, and experienced like old men, we are crude and sorrowful and superficial—I believe we are lost.”
This is the testament of Paul Baumer, who enlists with his classmates in the German army during WWI. They become soldiers with youthful enthusiasm, but the world of duty, culture, and progress they had been taught breaks into pieces under the first bombardment in the trenches. Through years of vivid horror, Paul holds fast to a single vow: to fight against the principle of hate that pits young men of the same generation but different uniforms against one another…if only he can come out of the war alive.
