Remarque in Wenjing (Set of 10 Volumes)

This set of books includes ten classic works by the German-American novelist Remarque. Erich Maria Remarque was born in a working-class family in Germany in 1898. At the age of 18, he volunteered to participate in the First World War and was injured on the front line. After the war, he worked as a teacher, reporter, editor and other jobs. In 1929, his novel All Quiet on the Western Front was published, causing a sensation and being quickly translated into more than 20 languages, making him a world-famous writer. Because of his anti-war stance, after the Nazis came to power in Germany, they publicly burned the works of him and Thomas Mann and others. In 1938, he was deprived of his German citizenship and later fled to the United States. In 1947, he became an American citizen and returned to Europe the following year and settled in Switzerland. Remarque died in Switzerland on September 25, 1970. In 1991, Remarque's hometown of Osnabrück established the Erich Maria Remarque Peace Prize. Most of Remarque's works are autobiographical, with concise words and an objective and cold temperament in his lyrical writing. He has been compared to the German Hemingway. He wrote a total of fifteen novels, three screenplays and two collections in his lifetime, among which many works such as "All Quiet on the Western Front", "Arch de Triomphe", "March of Companions" and "The Age of Love and Death" were adapted into movies.
