A "brilliant . . . perfectly nuanced translation" (The Boston Globe) of Thomas Mann's greatest short works

A Penguin Classic

Featuring his world-famous masterpiece, "Death in Venice," this collection of Nobel laureate Thomas Mann's stories and novellas reveals his artistic evolution. In a widely acclaimed translation that restores the controversial passages that were censored from the original English version, "Death in Venice" tells about a ruinous quest for love and beauty amid degenerating splendor. Gustav von Aschenbach, a successful but lonely author, travels to the Queen of the Adriatic in search of an elusive spiritual fulfillment that turns into his erotic doom. Spellbound by a beautiful Polish boy, he finds himself fettered to this hypnotic city of sun-drenched sensuality and eerie physical decay as it gradually succumbs to a secret epidemic.

Also included in this volume are eleven other stories by Mann: "Tonio Kroger," "Gladius Dei," "The Blood of the Walsungs," "The Will for Happiness," "Little Herr Friedmann," "Tobias Mindernickel," "Little Lizzy," "Tristan," "The Starvelings," "The Wunderkind," and "Harsh Hour." All of the stories collected here display Mann's inimitable use of irony, his subtle characterizations, and superb, complex plots.

Warm But Pills
Size: Full, Color: Purple
Overall the Intel Design jersey knit bed sheets are just like sleeping between a huge cotton blend t-shirt. It's soft, cozy, and warm to the touch. However after only two washings, the fabric begins to pill significantly and a lot of lint collects in the clothes dryer's lint trap. The new sheets now look five years old and stratches the skin. The warmth does provide longer periods of restful sleep. Not sure how long the fabric will last, as it appears a bit tired and worn. The initial purple color also appears noticeably duller. Good value at first, but probably will replace in a few months, so not much savings in the long run
