All Quiet on the Western Front


Paul’s trouble with his teacher is the teacher thinking he knows how to win the war and what he is doing. So he is trying to give Paul shitty advice that wont help him in anyway what so ever. I think the hardest part of coming home was confronting Kemmrich’s mom. I would not have the heart to tell my friend’s mom that he is now deceased. And it would really kill me to hear her say to me, “how come he died and you didn’t?” In all of these situations he has no say in anything. Like he cant really defend him self to all these elders and higher powers. In all these situations, with his dad, mother, Kemmrich’s mom, the major, and the teacher, he cannot defend him self or tell them off and that what they are saying is wrong or else he may be punished.
