Converted by millions of readers, generation after generation, into the great anti-war classic, All Quiet on the Front is a work of brutal denunciation where Remarque reflects part of his experiences as a combatant in the First World War. With pure realism and closeness, Paul B???umer -alter ego of the writer- narrates the fate of a group of soldiers during the First World War. His talent for transmitting the deepest emotions of the human being, through almost cinematographic images expressed in clear and direct language, leaves an indelible mark on the reader.
