An absolute masterpiece! The imagery is breathtakingly poetic. The metaphorical soliloquies take you to the heart and soul of human torment, leaving you with an understanding of the ultimate cost of war.

As you would expect, it's sad and depressing, but very well written and narrated. This should be required reading for all politicians!

Loved this book

It just shows how terrible war can be

excellent

Very powerful story especially because it is from the Germans point of view

A century on, this semi-autobiographical novel stands as one of the defining accounts of war. Narrated with deserved excellence.

Great narration of the original anti-war novel. By focusing on the individual experiences, struggle for survival, and psychological trauma of a soldier and a few of his comrades, the book shows that the reality of war for its victims is completely dissociated from the political and military factors that created their situation in the first place. While the novel plays in the trenches of WWI, the same thing is going on right now in Ukraine...

Book is a classic, it captures the brutality of war and reminds us that war is hell. Narration fit the book perfectly.

If your looking for a great ww1 book look no farther
