"À l'Ouest, rien de nouveau" a donné la parole à l'un de ces jeunes soldats allemands qui, comme l'auteur, vécut l'épreuve de la Grande Guerre. Plus de glorification des faits d'armes, mais l'omniprésence de la mort et le tableau de l'Apocalypse. Le livre est interdit à parution.

Angélique, qui, Dieu sait, n'avait rien d'un ange, Morgane, qu'on qualifierait aujourd'hui de "haut potentiel", Jasmine, charitablement renommée "la fille de la femme de ménage" dans les journaux et le rapport de police, et Sarah Leroy.

"Max Werner kam neben eine junge Russin zu sitzen, die er zum ersten Mal sah, - ihren langklingenden Namen überhörte er bei der Vorstellung, doch wurde sie von den anderen einfach als Fenia oder Fénitschka angeredet. In ihrem schwarzen nonnenhaften Kleidchen, das fast drollig unpariserisch ihre mittelgroße ganz unauffällige Gestalt umschloss und eine beliebte Tracht vieler Züricher Studentinnen sein sollte, machte sie zunächst auf ihn keinerlei besonderen Eindruck."
