Synopsis
One of the most famous antiwar novels ever written was first published in 1939, only two days after World War II began. It depicts the interior monologue of Joe Bonham, a World War I infantryman, as he lies helpless in a hospital after his arms and legs have been amputated and with injuries to his face that leave him unable to communicate. He recalls his earlier life and attempts to overcome the tremendous obstacles that now stand between him and the rest of humanity.

Publisher's Note
Experiences of a severely disabled World War I veteran which relates the horrors of war.
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

Industry reviews
"Mr. Trumbo sets this story down almost without pause or punctuation and with a fury amounting to eloquence."
Dershowitz 

"[It is] very hard to write about 'Johnny Got His Gun' without being guilty of understatement or hysterics. It is a terrifying book, of an extraordinary emotional intensity."
Dershowitz 

"It is hard to imagine a more persuasive argument for staying out of war than this smooth, savage, brilliant tale."
Dershowitz 

"Filled with visceral and revolting images, it's a novel that is easy to read but difficult to forget....But, true to form, Trumbo manages to bring it all to an upbeat conclusion."
Tait
