Didn’t know we were doing book reviews. But I’m all for it!
All Quiet (Im Westen nichts neues) also has a great classic film version from 1930 that’s well worth watching. And a 2022 remake that’s… well, a decent remake.
As for Jünger, I don’t think he’s a madman as much as he is a hopeless romantic, turbocharged by the absolute craziness of war in the trenches. Storm of Steel is a unique classic, but his other psychological-philosophical writings are also interesting. Especially for those who would like to get an insight into the thinking of a certain breed of people for whom war, domination, terror and mass murder are happy prospects. And those exist, in greater numbers than we think. Even if we see the rise today of some of them, there’s thousands more waiting in the shadows to come out and destroy society.
If you want to see who they are, read Jünger.
