Description
What awaits them: death or recovery?
“The Magic Mountain” is a tuberculosis sanatorium in the Swiss Alps. Its residents are forced to stay here for years, communicating with the outside world only through rare letters and telegrams. Here time flows unnoticed, life and death lose their meaning, and even the smallest nuances of human relationships, by contrast, acquire painful sharpness and significance. Love, friendship, enmity, jealousy— for the sanatorium’s inhabitants, it’s as if everything is marked by the shadow of nonexistence…
This story has many possible readings— a powerful philosophical study of the foundations of life, a subtle psychological analysis of different types of human character, relationships, a plunge into the history of culture, religion, and history in general— Mann depicted society on the eve of the First World War.
