I agree with the suggestion of All Quiet on the Western Front. The Wars by Timothy Findley. Also the Regeneration Trilogy by Pat Barker is good, although more about the effects of WWI on the men's psyches than their experiences in combat.

#111: I read All Quiet on the Western Front recently, too, and completely agree with your assessment. I wondered what took me so long to read it since I normally enjoy war stories.

Thanks so much for encouraging me to read All Quiet on the Western Front. You weren't wrong, of course, and I enjoyed a great deal.

Book #41, All Quiet on the Western Front First, thanks to TrishNYC for encouraging me to move this up in my reading. She has great taste and I was happily rewarded with this read. What can I add to what has been said about such a classic novel. The gut wrenching, emotional charged writing ...

Have you read the sequel "Not quite on the Eastern Front"? How does All Quite on the Western Front get a touchstone? One should at least have to spell correctly to get a touchstone.

I've read All Quite On the Western Front. An excellent book. I also have Sinclair Lewis on my To Be Read list.

In your WWI category, you have Good-bye to All That and All Quiet on the Western Front. If you end up reading them both, please post a comparison of them. I read Good-bye to All That first and then All Quiet On the Western Front a few months later. While All Quiet is the well-know classic, I ...

... how glorious our schoolteachers told us it would be, they don't have to fight and die in it, we do. Soon, it will be All Quiet on the Western Front. This is a re-read for me, last having read it in a PoliSci class in college 18 years ago.

I just started re-reading All Quiet on the Western Front this morning on my train ride to work. I had forgotten just how powerful the book is. The first chapter alone, with the young soldiers in the meadow contemplating how peaceful it seems, while the front is only five miles away and their ...

You have to read All quiet on the western front, it's brilliant and devastating. Death in venice is beautiful. And The curious incident of the dog in the night-time unlike anything i'd read before, very moving.

How did I miss All quite on the western front - and I have read this book.

37. All Quiet on the Western Front--Erich Maria Remarque

Actually Cold Comfort Farm and All Quiet on the Western Front were both already in the chain earlier, so those two are duplicate entries. So in order to straighten this chain out, why don't we take Philosojerk's entry as the next one in the chain, and so now we're looking for Emile. (Which, ...

I've read All Quiet on the Western Front! I can't think of another war one that I've read, so I'll just go with something unlikely to stall the game - Pride and Prejudice?

I've read The Things They Carried! I'll stay on a war theme -- All Quiet on the Western Front, anyone?

I am currently enjoying All Quite on the Western Front.

#8: I agree completely about All Quiet on the Western Front. I read it not long ago myself and wondered how I could have missed this classic in my reading. It was interesting reading it in juxtaposition with another classic about WWI, John Dos Passos' Three Soldiers.

Book 9: All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque. An incredible account of World War I which I think should be mandatory reading for anyone who has ever seen war as a good thing. I was speechless when I finished it.

Walk two moons, To kill a mockingbird and All quiet on the western front. This is just from the last month. His dark materials makes me cry every time i read it. The time traveler's wife and I wept my way through Dumbledore's funeral. (I'm asumming you all know by now)

I think that's All Quiet on the Western Front, although my translation has it as "We are at rest five miles behind the front." If I'm right, the next line is: "It wasn't a very likely place for disappearances, at least at first glance."

#8: I will have to add it to the list of classic books I should have read but never got around to, just like I did with All Quiet on the Western Front.

#16 I am almost finished All Quiet On The Western Front myself and I totally agree with you. The minute I started it (2 days ago), I was spellbound. You have chosen a fantastic quote from the book which, like you said, is written so beautifully it will never age. Have you read any others about WWI ...

I love that quote, Trish, and now I have to add All Quiet on the Western Front to my Amazon wishlist. I read my grandparents' copy many years ago for school and remember liking it, but when we broke up their house, for some reason, I didn't take it for my library. I want to read it again.

#12: I read All Quiet on the Western Front not long ago myself. I had never read it before and was stunned by the fact that I could have missed it for so long. A classic in the best sense of the term. BTW - I believe L'Engle was 88 or 89 when she died.

12. All quiet on the western front. What can I say about this book that has not already been said? I have to say that this book is just brilliant. You start off reading it not really sure what's coming but it gets you in its grip and you cannot put it down. The way that Remarque uses language is ...

1. All Quiet On the Western Front- Erich Maria Remarque. I cannot say enough about this book. Set in World War I from the German side, it shows the real soldiers for what they actually were. Kids on both sides. It shows the horrors of war on both sides, and shows the unnecessary loss of ...

All Quiet on the Western Front You want the black and white version of the movie since, short of leaving a few details out due to time, it doesn't deviate from the plot. It's amazing and quite powerful. Same thing with Johnny Got His Gun (Yes, the one that's clipped into an old Metallica ...
