…no one wanted to mention this book is racist?

Finally reading this!!!

Nothing like your favorite series from high school to get you out of the breakup slump

“it was the hesitancy and ubiquitousness of death that made him so great and terrible”

“there was a dialogue of machine guns, bickering from trench to trench.”

“it was a terrible thing to be a human and a soldier”

“All roads led into blackness”

“..the Russians oozed up out of the night like phantoms of death.”

“But no God took us under his wing”

“Sometimes we were befallen by a kind of crying without tears”

This book is infuckingsane. And Willy Reese is legitimately one of the best authors I’ve ever read.

“We saw hunger and the misery, and under the compulsion of war, we added to it”

“I would give up God and my own guns it’s for a piece of bread”

“I felt as unhappy and consumed by bliss as if I were in love”

“Everyday the tormenting emptiness within me deepened”

“I told myself even then that I wasn’t responsible for anything that I lived, thought, or said as a soldier…”

For this book, I think I will just add my favorite quotes from each portion I read as my reviews.

“But I got used to it, to never being alone, but always a stranger among strangers…I never allowed the noise and monotony of the day-to-day into my private kingdom.”

“My existence took place within me, mostly unreflected in external events”

“So I found my home in the cosmos”

Smut city over here
