Summary "The Invisible Enemy" by Arnold Castle is a science fiction novel likely written in the mid-20th century. The narrative revolves around a young man named Tom who grapples with the complexities and absurdities of war as he participates in a conflict whose motivations elude him. Central to the story is the exploration of the psychological and social impacts of warfare on individuals, especially a new generation of soldiers. In the book, Tom is sent to war at the tender age of fifteen, filled with anxiety and confusion about the enemy he is supposed to confront. Throughout his experience in battle, he reflects on the nature of violence and its futility, questioning the very motives behind his participation in the war. The climax of Tom's journey occurs when he comes face to face with the enemy, leading to a moment of profound realization about the shared humanity between soldiers on opposing sides. Ultimately, the story addresses themes of peace, the cost of violence, and the possibility of an alternative future free from conflict, echoing the sentiment that the true enemy lies within the cycle of war and aggression that humanity perpetuates.
