I first read 'All Quiet on the Western Front' as a high school sophomore. At that time, the story's affect upon me was minimal at best. I take the shift in my opinion of this novel as proof that you should revisit all the books you had to read in high school that you found boring. At age sixteen, I had very little idea of how elements of fiction like prose, pacing, characterization, and others worked together to create a great work of fiction. By that age, I was already a veteran of the horror genre and had read about a lot of gruesome things, so some of the things in 'All Quiet on the Western Front' struck me as almost tame by comparison. Still, certain images from the novel have stuck with me over the years, some of them for obvious reasons--like the image of a young soldier taking cover in a bomb crater underneath a coffin--and others for not-so-obvious reasons--like the yellow boots that pass from soldier to soldier. With twelve years of life experience and a better understanding of the craft of fiction under my belt, my opinion of this novel is now the polar opposite of what it was as a teenager.
Muller conveys perfectly each emotion and mood in the novel, whether it be pensiveness, despair, resignation, or even the few instances of happiness that occur. This audiobook definitely gets five stars in all categories. I won't say that everybody will enjoy it, but I will say that I think it is well worth at very least one read, if not many more.
Unabridged Audiobook Date: August 2010 Duration: 6 hours 58 minutes Summary: Paul Baumer is just 19 years old when he and his classmates enlist. They are Germany's Iron Youth who enter the war with high ideals and leave it disillusioned or dead. As Paul struggles with the realities of the man he has become, and the inscrutable world to which he must return, he is led like a ghost of his former self into the war's final hours. All Quiet is one of the greatest war novels of all time, an eloquent expression of the futility, hopelessness and irreparable losses of war. Genres:

Remark's prose is clear, simple, and highly evocative. He has an eye for choosing the right details to bring a scene to life. Likewise, the pensive but resigned voice he creates for the novel's protagonist adds to the terribleness of the events by making the reader wonder: "How can a man become resigned to such things? " The novel's pace, which seemed slow to me as a teenager, now seems to fit the novel perfectly, as does the seeming lack of a strict plot. Both convey the passivity of the protagonist as he is pulled from one event to another. Lastly, but maybe most importantly, the sense of despair that Remark creates throughout the last two or three chapters of the novel is so strong and so real that I found it difficult to read those sections. I find that fact to be a testament to Remark's skill in delivering this particular narrative, as well as a mark of authenticity. As for the narrator: I have been a fan of Frank Muller's narration ever since listening to his rendering of the second installment in King's Dark Tower sequence.
