“Johnny Got His Gun” is a book about a soldier who is drafted into World War 2 and suffers catastrophic injuries—losing his arms, legs, and face in combat. The novel revolves around his slow return to consciousness as he realizes that the machine has reduced him to a fully sentient, limbless, voiceless nugget of human meat—a prisoner in his own body. It’s an absolutely grotesque exploration of the horrors of war, and I’d give it a solid 10/10.
