✅ Summary :

Johnny Got His Gun is a classic anti-war novel told entirely from the perspective of Joe Bonham, a young American soldier severely wounded in World War I. After an artillery shell blast, Joe wakes up in a hospital bed to the chilling realization that he has lost his arms, legs, face, and all of his senses, leaving him conscious but trapped within his own mind. The novel follows Joe's internal stream of consciousness, exploring his memories of his life before the war, his family, and his girlfriend, all of which contrast with the grim reality of his present state. After struggling with his confinement and grappling with suicidal thoughts, he eventually discovers a way to communicate with the nurses and doctors by tapping his head on his pillow in Morse code. He asks to be put on public display as a living example of the true, hidden horror of war. However, the military authorities refuse his request, fearing that his grotesque injuries would demoralize the public, and they isolate and silence him by increasing his sedation.
