Heliopolis (1949) is one of Jünger's key works, which reflected his political views and the ideology of the conservative revolution. This is a talented and original novel that combines the features of dystopia and philosophical parable. Its plot is simple: in the mysterious metropolis, which became the new capital of mankind after another world war, there is a merciless struggle between the military and political aristocracy. And the people suffering from the despotism of power become a victim of this confrontation. The Glass Bees (1957) is perhaps Jünger's most unusual novel, written at the intersection of the genres of utopia and dystopia. Society of technological progress and the triumph of artificial intelligence, robots that replace humans in production, the development of virtual reality and a comfortable existence. For this "well-being" people have to pay with loneliness, and the loss of personal freedom and lack of control. Such is the world in which the hero of the novel lives - a retired captain Richard, who is trying to get a job in a factory for the production of intelligent midget robots of a certain Zapparoni - a sophisticated lover of experiments who wants to surpass the main creator - nature. Perhaps humanity has gone astray and the perfection of technology is only an apparent blessing?
