Krig Oif Der Erd [War on Earth], by Uri Zvi Greenberg. Warsaw: E. Gitlin, 1923. Yiddish.
In this work Uri Zvi Greenberg voices his experience from service at the Serbian front as a soldier of the Austro-Hungarian Army in World War I (during the years 1915-1918). The book integrates passages of poetry and prose with Greenberg's personal impressions and diary chapters.
This is one of Greenberg's earliest works. The book was first published under the title "In Zaytens Roysh" (In the Noise of the Time; Lemberg, 1919) and later in a revised edition, with changes and additions, under the title "Krig oyf der Erd" – the edition before us.
