The GREATEST WAR NOVEL of ALL TIME

>> No.14860837

Enjoyable and simple

>> No.14860862

It's a great book because it doesn't dramatize war nor makes it something otherwordly, but rather it tells you exactly how the events went from the narrator's perspective in a way that you can actually understand his feelings against the war and how Germany was handling himself at the time.

My grandfather only read it recently. He was a marine shortly after Korea and had been a history buff all his life. When he finished it he told me that he's always heard people say it was the greatest war novel of all time and now he understood why: because it was.
I read it but I don't have many to compare it to. All I can say is it's very good.
