ⓘ About Erich Maria Remarque
Erich Maria Remarque was a bestselling literary fiction author from Germany. The author was born to master machinist and bookbinder Peter Franz Remarque and Anna Maria Stallknecht his wife. He was born in the industrial town of Osnabruck, Westphalia in 1898. As members of the poorer working classes, his family had to move from house to house for more than a dozen years. They once lived in the rooms that served as the offices of the publishing company where his father worked. Remarque was brought up in a very strict Catholic homeland and went to a parochial school, where his experiences would later inspire some of his works. So that he could pay for his schoolbooks and several other hobbies he used to give piano lessons to young girls as he was a gifted organist and pianist.
