無料で聴く

All Quiet on the Western Front is a powerful anti-war novel that resonates deeply with readers. Written by WWI veteran Erich Maria Remarque, this semi-autobiographical tale follows Paul Bäumer and his classmates, who, driven by the fervor of a patriotic teacher, Kantorek, enlist in the Imperial German Army. They soon confront the harrowing mental and physical struggles of life in the trenches, experiencing a profound disconnection from civilian life back home. First published in serial form in 1928, the book was later banned in Nazi Germany and has been adapted into films in 1930, 1979, and 2022, winning 6 Academy Awards, a Golden Globe, and an Emmy. The printed work, translated into 29 languages, including the first English version by A.W. Wheen, offers a poignant reflection on the impact of war. As Remarque writes in the prologue This book is to be neither an accusation nor a confession, and least of all an adventure, for death is not an adventure to those who stand face to face with it. It will try simply to tell of a generation of men who, even though they may have escaped its shells, were destroyed by the war. - Summary by ASharma
