About This Novel

"The Love of Neighbor" was written while Remarque was in exile in Switzerland and France from 1938 to 1939. It was not published for the first time in Germany until 1953. The author Remarque writes passionately about the difficulties and struggles of ordinary people before World War II, recreating the precarious social picture of the European continent under the shadow of the Nazis. The novel draws on the wandering fate of the three main characters Kern, Lute, and Steiner to connect a series of stories of homeless people persecuted by the Nazis on the eve of World War II. Because we have no legal identity documents, we wandering people have become accustomed to saying goodbye to everything at any time. Years of wandering have convinced me that life is always easier for people who are selfish, ruthless, and habitual liars. But I still believe in kindness, friendship, love, and that people will break through their self-preservation instincts to help unrelated people. I even experience such stories more often than people who live a peaceful life.
