Set in a world of its own, Ernst Jünger's On the Marble Cliffs is both a mesmerizing work of fantasy and an allegory of the advent of fascism. The narrator of the book and his brother, Otho, live in an ancient house carved out of the great marble cliffs that overlook the Marina, a great and beautiful lake that is surrounded by a peaceable land of ancient cities and temples and flourishing vineyards.

When Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their reluctant cousin Eustace, are swept into a magical painting, they find themselves aboard the Dawn Treader, the royal ship of King Caspian.
