The Forgotten Soldier by Guy Sajer
A young man with a French father but a German mother is inducted into the Wermacht in the summer of 1942. He could just as easily have become a French soldier. Following his initial excitement, the book becomes a horrifying chronicle of misery, cold, fear, starvation and disillusionment. THE FORGOTTEN SOLDIER is one of those few classic accounts of an individual's experience of an international anguish, the single most harrowing and incredible account of war that you are ever likely to read.
Born to a French father and a German mother, the author joined the German army in the summer of 1942. After three years fighting on the Eastern Front he was finally captured by the English in 1945. After the war he returned to his native France.
