The novel was first published in November and December 1928 in the German newspaper Vossische Zeitung and in book form in late January 1929. The book and its sequel, The Road Back (1930), were among the books banned and burned in Nazi Germany. All Quiet on the Western Front sold 2.5 million copies in 22 languages in its first 18 months in print.In 1930, the book was adapted as an Academy Award-winning film of the same name, directed by Lewis Milestone.

Sota kaikessa kauheudessaan

5 stars

Modernin sotakirjallisuuden klassikko, eikä syyttä. Sodan raadollisuutta ja järjettömyyttä seurataan kaunistelematta tavallisen rivisotilaan silmin. Hän on koko lukioluokkansa tavoin lähtenyt opettajansa innostamana vapaaehtoisena sotaan sen varhaisvaiheessa, mutta jo ensimmäinen vuosi rintamalla on tehnyt koulupojista vanhoja miehiä, ja toverit kuolevat rinnalta yksi kerrallaan. Kirja, jota toisaalta lukee kevyesti mutta joka on pohjimmiltaan todella raskasta luettavaa.
