All Quiet on the Western Front. Erich Maria Remarque


I actually found this book in my garage whilst doing some summer cleaning. It was my dad's and it was in a box of books he was going to consign. I stole it, and a couple other classics I have had yet to read, and got to it. I was supposed to read this book for a Quick Recall (Quixbowl, Academic Team, what have you) season for the literary section of our tournaments but I never did. I had too many other books to read for class and I wasn't old enough, that I know now. 

This novel is heartbreaking. Go read it now. Now go think about what humanity is doing and go fix it and quit killing each other.
