Synopsis

'Out of the hideously scarred soil of Flanders rose black, splintered trunks of trees'

In one of the greatest war memoirs ever written, an ordinary German soldier recalls the horror and bloodlust of combat on the Western Front with brutal, unflinching candour and stark simplicity.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Ernst Jünger, the son of a wealthy chemist, ran away from home to join the Foreign Legion. His father dragged him back, but he returned to military service when he joined the German army on the outbreak of the First World War. Storm of Steel was Jünger's first book, published in 1920. Jünger died in 1998.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

'Listen, Švejk, are you really God's prize oaf?'
'Humbly report, sir,' Švejk answered solemnly. 'I am!'

The chaotic, hilarious adventures of an ordinary soldier, who is either genuinely a total idiot or a genius pretending to be one - perhaps the greatest book to come out of the First World War, as Švejk tries with endless ingenuity to avoid getting to the trenches

A new series of twenty distinctive, unforgettable Penguin Classics in a beautiful new design and pocket-sized format, with coloured jackets echoing Penguin's original covers.
