The fate of Paul Bäumer, his frontline friends, and his peers moved people around the world. And it hasn't faded into obscurity, even after the generation that endured the hell of the First World War ended its earthly existence.
We offer the reading public a new edition of the novel "All Quiet on the Western Front," the text of which is reinterpreted from a contemporary perspective and accompanied by commentary. Those who read the novel in 1929 were well aware of the realities of the world in which the writer's characters lived, fought, and died. Today, these details have been overshadowed by images of later wars, especially World War II. Moreover, Remarque never intended to describe the nuances of wartime life in detail. He aimed to paint an expressive picture of hell, a meat grinder that decimated an entire generation. But we believe that the modern reader needs to understand the intricacies of frontline life and the main twists and turns of the First World War. The very war that some historians believe began to destroy European civilization set in motion a process that may now be irreversible.
