All Quiet on the Western Front — Erich Maria Remarque

Erich Maria Remarque's 1929 masterpiece: a young German soldier's unflinching account of the physical and psychological devastation of the First World War, told from the trenches. One of the most powerful anti-war novels ever written, and the basis for the multi-Oscar-winning films of 1930 and 2022.
