That was my entirely-unthought-through phrase in sending the link to Craig, but I can tell you what I meant by it: I've heard of Ernst Junger and had no idea of that book. I still think it's bizarre and cool that he wrote anything like it (WWI novelist crossed with Philip K. Dick-level bizarre and cool), which is why the comment struck me as a highlight.

But I think NYRB's press exists specifically to bring little-known things to light. Ivy Compton-Burnett, anyone?
