À propos de cet audio

Joachim Neugroschel’s brilliant new translation lets you enjoy the work of Nobel-Laureate Thomas Mann as never before. By using creative, contemporary language, Neugroschel reinterprets Mann for modern English-speaking readers. The author’s superb literary craftsmanship, his psychological insight, and the deeply erotic content of his work shine forth in this definitive English-language version of some of his most celebrated short works. This collection features the world masterpiece Death in Venice, with its controversial passages now restored. You will find fresh relevance in the story of an aging writer’s uncontrollable and humiliating passion, and the other poignant tales included here. These works subtly explore the great themes of Mann’s fiction - his mythic fascination with sexual inhibition and artistic creativity. This translation, with its recreation of the intricate rhythms of the author’s language, virtually sings in an audio format. Paul Hecht’s lyrical narration makes the music and meaning of Mann’s writing more accessible than ever to modern ears.

This was great!

This review is for readers who are not familiar with Thomas Mann, like I was, before reading this book. I had heard of Death in Venice, supposed it was a murder mystery set long ago, and intrigued with Venice, was pleased to find the collection free in Audible Plus.I generally prefer full length novels to short stories, so was tempted to jump ahead in the collection, but as the chapters are not labelled, and there was not guide in the description, I settled in to listen from the beginning. I was glad I did, as I was introduced to Mann’s writing and enjoyed all the other stories. Death In Venice is the last in the collection, starting with Chapter 25, but treat yourself as I did, and take them all in. Death In Venice was nothing like I imagined, and it was exceedingly good. It is a story well suited to current times. Enjoy!
