This is the testament of Paul Bäumer, who enlists with his classmates in the German army of World War I. These young men become enthusiastic soldiers, but their world of duty, culture, and progress 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 hatred that meaninglessly pits young men of the same generation but different uniforms against one another... if only he can come out of the war alive.
Cruda, real, desgarradora, horrible, maravillosa, triste, sincera... clara y sencilla.
Escrita con una sencillez pasmosa sin ningún tipo de adorno. La guerra, esa guerra, ninguna guerra admite adornos.
