Episode description
Recording on location from the smoke-wreathed vista at Siglo in Melbourne, I am joined by writer and researcher Nicolas Hausdorf to discuss German writer Ernst Jünger's post-apocalyptic novel, Eumeswil.
We talk about the novel as a metaphor for Europe in the 70s, parapolitics, Jünger's politically awkward position, his aristocratic outlook, his concept of "The Anarch," libertarianism, Victoria's Covid response, and much more.
