Timothy Findley and Erich Remarque both write a novel about the misapprehended image of war. In both novels the reality of war is uncovered. ... Remarque writes about a soldier who serves at the front and lives in the trenches always on alert, ready for anything. ... The poem Report on Experience by Edmund Blund adds a stronger sense to the state of soldiers in All Quiet on the Western Front. Remarque’s All Quiet on the Western Front is a more powerful novel then Findley’s The Wars since it is more descriptive of life in the trenches and shows how soldiers start to lose what little they came in with, while The Wars spends too much time with animals.
The description of life in the trenches is a lot more swaying in All quiet on the Western front than The Wars. There is a quote in All Quiet on the Western Front which basically describes the horror of the war and totally rids a person of all romantic ideas he would have of the war, the quote is as follows; "Every day, and every hour, every shell and every death cuts into this thin support, and the years waste it rapidly. ... This shows how men entered the war with very little and as they went on lost everything.
