Jünger! Mai saputo niente oltre il nome e l'ambigua fama. Mai letto niente. Non mi interessa. Anche questo racconto ripreso in mano per la terza volta piú per senso dell'ordine ( é sullo scaffale da molto tempo e voglio togliermelo di torno) che per interesse genuino. Bam!

Sembra l'alba selvaggia del mondo che noi, ormai, vecchi e disincantati pantofolai, con malinconia e con sollievo possiamo rimpiangere senza desiderare. ( )
