ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT

Mike Vendetti narrates this classic WWI story, told from a German soldier's point of view. Paul endures all the brutalities of the Great War that we can imagine--and those that we cannot. Vendetti's deep pitch and rhythmic cadence mirror the random, horrific trajectory of Paul's experiences with trench warfare. Every moment in this story, the good and bad, illustrates the life of a soldier. Paul's thoughts on humanity and attempts to understand his place in the new and terrifying battle-scarred Europe spill forth in each chapter. Vendetti's tone reflects the indifferent spirit of the Great War itself, which follows Paul wherever he goes and does not soon leave him--or the listener.
