and whan i wrote it i didnt see that u dont like ppl asking for help in homework. the thing is that i really dont know where to go, i asked in the librery but all they do is give me a book with 600 pages and tell me "read", my teacher is stupid as hell and i just dont know who to ask. im sorry if it bothers u, u can delete the massege if u want to. kat

Here's what I'll do

What I can do is recommend books, and ask the others to do the same. But that's really about all you'll get here. The reading you will have to do yourself. Also, I wouldn't go around calling people stupid. Very impolite, and doesn't really make people want to help you. So here is what I suggest: There is a book called "Hemingway, A biography by Jeffery Meyers It's really interesting. The pages you'd want to read are 346-446 they deal with ww2. I really think if you approach it with an open mind you'll find it interesting. I read the entire book, and it really isn't all that bad good luck.

thanx

and about my english teacher. she an american english teacher and i read better than her, in my eyes she isnt really smart. she knows nothing. now i just need to get my hands on that book. i read alot but most of it is sci-fi, and my teacher doesnt let me write the paper about sci-fi books. the thing is that i might read all the things u say, but i still wont know how it effected the writing. i just cant do that in my mind, i dont know why but as much as i read alot i still cant get into the writer mind. im just not good at it. kat
 
You may choose German Authors

Say - Sigfried Lenz and Gunter Grass. read some of their books, you will see the influence, it's straight forward. Afetr reading some of the books, make a search in google and you will find many resources that may help you to complete the picture.

how about Joseph Heller?

Catch 22 is about WW II, and you can find some info on him and other authors here.
