Das Boot [‘The Boat’], by Lothar-Günther Buchheim (1973)
Turned into a memorable film in 1981, Buchleim’s bestselling German novel remains an extraordinary evocation of the claustrophobia, strain and excitement of life on a wartime submarine. Submarine stories capture something essential about our human relation to the sea: its vastness emphasises our fragility and aloneness. A masterpiece of human tension.
