Literary Fiction
by Erich Maria Remarque
Young German soldiers march toward glory and find only mud, terror, and the annihilation of their innocence. Remarque's searing anti-war novel follows Paul Bäumer and his comrades as they endure the mechanized slaughter of World War I. A generation is devoured by a conflict that reveals patriotism as a cruel lie.
