Tristan

Don't let anyone tell you that one of main characters dies in the end. This is simply not true! [Although there is some presumption]  The style is consistently ironic, not to say mockingly, much more than the one in  Magic Mountain . Thomas Mann referred to his own work as a "burlesque". Arrows are shot in every direction and hit everyone; except for Richard Wagner, whose music for Mann apparently was inviolable.  A great read for anyone who ...  ... already knows  The Magic Mountain  and like to take a peek at a similar setting; ... didn't dare to read the  The Magic Mountain  and want to know a little bit about the setting; ... always wanted to read something by Thomas Mann.
