Three Comrades (novel)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Three Comrades (German, Drei Kameraden, ISBN 0-449-91242-6) is a novel written in 1937 by the German author Erich Maria Remarque describing the lives of three disillusioned German First World War veterans in 1928 Berlin.

It was made into an American film of the same title in 1938 starring Franchot Tone, Robert Taylor, Robert Young and Margaret Sullavan (see Three Comrades (film)) and is also believed to have been the inspiration for director Michael Cimino's 1978 film The Deer Hunter.
