À propos de cet audio

The world-famous masterpiece by Nobel laureate Thomas Mann - here in a new translation by Michael Henry Heim

Published on the eve of World War I, a decade after Buddenbrooks had established Thomas Mann as a literary celebrity, Death in Venice tells the story of Gustave von Aschenbach, a successful but aging writer who follows his wanderlust to Venice in search of spiritual fulfillment that instead leads to his erotic doom.

In the decaying city, besieged by an unnamed epidemic, he becomes obsessed with an exquisite Polish boy, Tadzio. "It is a story of the voluptuousness of doom," Mann wrote. "But the problem I had especially in mind was that of the artist's dignity."

I was greatly disappointed when an introduction to the work which preceded thr reading stated what happens in the climactic ending. It made the experience much less enjoyable. If you have not read the book already, skip the intro or choose another audio production of it.
