All Quiet on the Western Front: With Commentary by Benjamin Fife

It has been called 'The Greatest War Novel of All Time.'

All Quiet on the Western Front stands also as one of the greatest condemnations of war of all time.

Follow a firsthand account of German enlisted man, Paul Baumer as he recounts details mundane and profound. His account moves and tears at our hearts with the horrors of war and the stark realities of humanity. All while somehow skirting around the question: Why?

I bite into my pillow. I grasp the iron rods of my bed with my fists. I ought never to have come here. Out there I ws indifferent and often hopeless--I will never be able to be so again. I was a soldier, and now I am nothing but an agony for myself, for my mother, for everything that is so comfortless and without end.

I ought never to have come on leave.

This edition also features commentary by audiobook narrator and classic literature enthusiast Benjamin Fife.
