'As though walking through a deep dream, I saw steel helmets approaching through the craters. They seemed to sprout from the fire-harrowed soil like some iron harvest ...'Storm of Steel is one of the greatest works to emerge from the catastrophe of the First World War. A memoir of astonishing power, savagery and ashen lyricism, it illuminates like no other book the horrors but also the fascination of total war, presenting the conflict through the eyes of an ordinary German soldier. As an account of the terrors of the Western Front and of the sickening allure that made men keep fighting on for four long years, Storm of Steel has no equal.
Det eventyrlige hjerte består af 71 prosastykker — drømme og surrealistiske mareridtsrapporter, observationer omkring naturfænomener og botaniske nærstudier, biografiske vignetter og essayistiske tekster om kultur og samfund. ErnstJünger ønskede med dette overflødighedshorn at beskrive en anderledes måde at anskue verden på. Han eksperimenterede derfor med forskellige betragtningsmåder, der forener klare og præcise observationer med drømmenes utvungne receptivitet.
Den utopiske og drømmeagtige roman "På marmorklipperne" (opr. 1939) er Ernst Jüngers metaforiske opgør med Det Tredje Rige. Et stilistisk mesterværk i camoufleringens kunst.
