Norman Mailer became world-famous overnight at the age of 25 with his debut novel "The Naked and the Dead". In 1944, he volunteered for military service and fought on the American side in the Pacific. As an eyewitness, he describes daily life at the front with all its horrors in the style of a report. However, Mailer focuses more on describing his comrades, their feelings, their fear, and their suffering. This makes them visible and alive, emerging from their anonymity. In addition to the personal story, the question always takes center stage: What goes on inside a person who goes to their death on command?
