«Sin novedad en el frente» is the war novel by Erich Maria Remarque, published by Orbis in paperback (185 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows young German soldier Paul Bäumer on the Western Front of World War I. Far from epic, it narrates life in the trenches, the horror of combat, and the progressive disillusionment of a generation that felt betrayed by war. It is an anti-war plea that portrays the brutality and absurdity of the conflict.
First part of the All Quiet on the Western Front/The Road Back series. Original title: Im Westen nichts Neues.
For readers interested in World War I and classics of anti-war narrative.
Erich Maria Remarque was a German novelist. His landmark novel All Quiet on the Western Front (1928), based on his experience in the Imperial German Army during World War I, was an international bestseller which created a new literary genre of veterans writing about conflict. The book was adapted to film several times. Remarque's anti-war themes led to his condemnation by Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels as "unpatriotic". He was able to use his literary success and fame to relocate to Switzerland as a refugee, and to the United States, where he became a naturalized citizen.
