I don't the actual philosophical definition of "nihilism" but as a layperson, Paul Baumer embodies it. He has no idea why he is actually fighting the war. He has a deep affinity for the people he fights alongside, but no animosity to the people he is fighting against.

This is a surprisingly short read. It is listed at nearly 300 pages, but the pages are small, the font is large and the margins are generous. If you had the time, and can stomach the material, you could probably finish this in several hours.
