Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo [1989 PAPERBACK]
VINTAGE PAPERBACK [1989] BANTAM BOOKS
Mass market paperback. Top left-hand corner of back cover has some creasing, otherwise an excellent seemingly unread vintage reading copy with cool cover art!
This was no ordinary war. This was a war to make the world safe for democracy. And if democracy was made safe, then nothing else mattered - not the millions of dead bodies, nor the thousands of ruined lives...
This is no ordinary novel. This is a novel that never takes the easy way out: it is shocking, violent, terrifying, horrible, uncompromising, brutal, remorseless and gruesome... but so is war.
Winner of the National Book Award.
