“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.”
—Erich Maria Remarque, novelist (22 Jun 1898-1970), in “All Quiet on the Western Front”
