Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trumbo Bantam Books, 1989 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. Dalton Trumbo, author of the brilliant novel, NIGHT OF THE AUROCHS, was one of the most prolific and important literary figures of our time. His more than sixty screenplays include SPARTACUS, EXODUS, PAPILLON, and the Academy Award- winning THE BRAVE ONE. JOHNNY GOT HIS GUN is the most highly-acclaimed work of Mr. Trumbo's remarkable career. Very good condition. Pages unmarked, very minor creasing and wear to cover and spine.
