Il primo romanzo di Robert Musil, pubblicato nel 1906, ci immerge in un terribile universo concentrazionario, celato dietro la facciata di un collegio militare che educa i figli della borghesia austriaca. Gli schemi del romanzo di formazione vengono stravolti dalla registrazione dei rituali sadici che caratterizzano la vita degli studenti, evidenziando meccanismi di sopraffazione e disprezzo per la libertà individuale, creando un mondo adolescenziale diviso tra carnefici e vittime, legati da passioni morbose. Il protagonista cerca di seguire una sua avventura intellettuale, oscillando tra complicità e ripulsa, desiderio di capire e rigetto morale. È soprattutto turbato da un desiderio sessuale percepito come degradato e colpevole, che si manifesta in attrazioni per una prostituta sgradevole o un compagno vulnerabile. Questo tormento diventa emblematico di un difetto d'essere che la ragione non riesce a sanare. Largamente autobiografico, il romanzo cattura immediatamente l'attenzione della cultura europea per la sua disturbante novità e verità, oltre che per la maestria di una scrittura già perfettamente risolta, nonostante la giovane età dell'autore.
