Reflection

The novel, All Quiet on the Western Front, was overall a very good book. The story was told by the character Paul Baumer’s point of view. He goes through his experiences during World War I. I liked the story because, being a war story, it was full of action. The way Remarque portrayed war and the way he wrote made me want to keep reading to see what would happen next. The story also showed a different side of World War I, being told by a German soldier. It was a bit upsetting to see all of the main characters die, but the overall story was great.

Reflection

Eric Maria Remarque's novel, All Quiet on the Western Front was an enjoyable read. The fact that the novel was written from the point of view of a German soldier gives an entirely new perspective on the war. The novel expresses a theme that all individuals despite their differences are morally the same. The protagonist, Paul, begins to realize that in essence, the people whom he opposed were actually no different than himself.

Reflection

The novel All Quiet on the Western Front by Eric Maria Remarque was overall a very good book. It shows a different perspective of war, the perspective of a German soldier. It tells how they fight and soon realize that they are no different from the opposing army. As the soldiers keep fighting they start losing their moral due to the horrors of war. Such as the unsanitary conditions, mass amounts of killing, and all the fighting. The younger soldiers also lose their moral because they believe they hadn’t made a significant impact in society like the older men which have families and careers. This book also shows how the recruits become shel shocked and changed forever by the experience of war.Thus we see this book is a good source of information on the horrors of the front and war from a German soldier's perspective.

Reflection

The novel, All Quiet on the Western Front is a book about Paul, a German soldier in WWI. The book is told in his point of view and follows him through the experiences he has in the war. The author uses intense descriptive language to convey horrific imagery of scenes in the war. I really liked this book because it is very unique to any war book or movie I have ever seen. The way the author goes into deep detail to describe the emotions the main character feels from either being on the front or being in a hospital makes this a very good book, which I enjoyed very much.

All Quiet on the Western Front, by Enrich Maria Remarque. The book is told from the point of view of a young German soldier named Paul. Paul tells the story about his time spent in World War I and how it affected him physically and mentally. Paul also talks about how he became more of a man because of the war. One lesson the Paul talks about is going from wanting to kill the enemy to not understanding why he is trying to kill them. I liked this book because it had a lot of action and there was also suspense when you didn't know if Paul and his fellow soldiers were going to live to see the next day.

Reflection

The Book All Quiet On the Western Front by Enrich Maria Remarque. This took place in world war by the fictional character Paul baumer. Paul discusses of his past experience within the war and how it changed him as a character. Paul felt he was no longer a kid but felt more mature do to the war experiences. His life assumed so much hate that he turned from a grateful person to the thought of guilt and death. I really enjoyed the book, because it had a lot of dramatic and uptight parts.
