I just finished Stalingrad by Antony Beevor. It describes the WW2 from German and Russian point of view, especially about the Stalingrad battle.

It makes me see war as something absurd. People were constantly dying, by fighting or because of inhumane life conditions.

I wouldn't recommend it if you are extremely sensitive to violence and death.
