Love and Enchantment
'The greatest German novelist of the 20th century' Spectator 'A supremely gifted storyteller' New YorkerThree of the finest stories by a giant of European literature, collected in a beautiful editionThis triptych of stories represents some of the finest work by the great German master, Thomas Mann. From a classic early account of artistic formation, suffused with deep melancholy, to works that explore the complex social fractures of his time, this volume showcase the range of Mann's genius and his matchless understanding of character.In sparkling new translations by Lesley Chamberlain, these tales take us from a tense party in Weimar Berlin to a disturbing magician's performance in an Italian seaside town, probing the consolations and limitations of art with wit and profound irony.Part of the Pushkin Press Classics series: timeless storytelling by icons of literature, hand picked from around the globe.Translated by Lesley ChamberlainThomas Mann (1875-1955) was perhaps Germany's most famous twentieth-century writer. Born to a merchant family in Lübeck, Mann was preparing to enter the family business when his father suddenly died and the business was liquidated. The Manns moved to Munich, where Mann began his literary career with the epic novel Buddenbrooks (1901), which was a huge success. Further novels and stories followed, including Death in Venice (1912) and The Magic Mountain (1924); five years following publication of the latter novel, Mann was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature. When Hitler came to power, Mann fled to Switzerland, and from there he escaped to California at the outbreak of the Second World War. He is buried in Switzerland, where he spent his final years.
