From the book

A prompt from this edition.

Every chapter of the Commonplace Edition closes with a prompt.

Commonplace

Full bellies and double rations open the book, owed to a miscalculation: rations were drawn for one hundred and fifty men, and the company came back eighty strong. Paul tells it almost cheerfully. Why tell it that way? Underline the plainest sentence about the losses, and decide what the easy tone around it does to the news.

At the close of Chapter I, All Quiet on the Western Front.
