Beskrivelse
A captivating novel that traces the extraordinary life of Thomas Mann, exploring his complex experiences with love, exile, war, and family. This story captures the contradictions and triumphs of a celebrated literary figure.
A powerful portrait of Thomas Mann’s life and the turbulent twentieth century he lived through.
From one of today’s most acclaimed writers comes a sweeping narrative about Thomas Mann, a man whose life was marked by both great praise and profound contradictions. During the First World War, he found himself supporting the German army, only to foresee the terrifying rise of Nazism before the Second World War.
Mann fathered six children and concealed his homosexuality, remaining deeply connected to his family while facing the tragedy of suicide within it. He penned some of Europe’s most significant literary works and earned the Nobel Prize but never returned to the country that inspired his creativity.
Through Mann’s remarkable journey, Colm Tóibín offers a stunning reflection on the challenges and changes of the twentieth century.
