Set against the backdrop of World War I, the story follows a young architecture student in Munich who cleverly avoids military enlistment. Through the character of Ginster, a Chaplinesque antihero, the narrative explores themes of self-absorption and societal demands. The horrors of war remain largely offstage, with civilian life heavily influenced by military language. As Ginster grapples with his desires and the relentless pressures of the world around him, the novel reflects on the absurdity of war and its pervasive impact on everyday life, making it resonate in contemporary times.
