Interesting and good read of an enlisted mans point of view of WWI. Reminds me a bit of "Good solider Svek" without the humor.

best novel i've read in a while
the prose is so efficient and clean. the characters are vivid, complex, natural. it's a difficult read in the sense that it is starkly real. this isn't the typical war novel as it's about people more than conflict--if that's possible. a must read for anyone that hopes to understand the experience of war, life, solitude, and isolation.
