All Quiet on the Western Front

jo-jo_weaver shared a tip "I enjoyed the perspective it offered. I grew up learning about loved ones experiences during war times, and this book offered the perspective of a man who was not only doing his duty, but seeing how others, enemy or not, were doing the exactly the same thing. The emotions he felt, people he met, and things he experienced weren't doused in buckets of heroism or a need for recognition like other war novels; he was a typical soldier who was there because of necessity, and felt with raw sincerity."
