Death In Venice: And Seven Other Stories
By: Thomas Mann
From: Vintage Books USA
Pages: 402
Softcover
ISBN: 0-679-72206-8
ADL's Price: $10.95
In adition to Death In Venice, this volume includes "Mario And The Magician," "Disorder And Early Sorrow," "A Man And His Dog," "Felix Krull," "The Blood Of The Walsungs," "Tristan," and "Tonio Kroger." These stories, as direct as Thomas Mann's novels are complex, are perfect illustrations of their author's belief that "a story must tell itself." Varying in theme, in style, in tone, each is in its own way characteristic of Mann's prodigious talents. From the high art of the famous title novella ("A story," Mann said, "of death... of the volumptuousness of doom"), to the irony of "Felix Krull," the early story on which he later based his comic novel The Confessions Of Felix Krull, they are stunning testimony to the mastery and virtuosity of a literary giant. Translated from the German by H.T. Lowe-Porter
