Mann's handling of these concerns in this story of a middle-aged German writer, torn by his passion for a Polish youth met on holiday in Venice, resulted in a work of great psychological intensity and tragic power. It is presented here in an excellent new translation with extensive commentary on many facets of the story.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003e80 pages\u003cbr\u003eDover Thrift Editions, 1995\u003cbr\u003eOriginally Published in 1912\u003cbr\u003e5.5 x 0.2 x 8.5 inches\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9780486287140\u003cbr\u003eFiction\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":7228653338654,"sku":"9780486287140","price":4.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0175\/8594\/products\/Death-in-Venice_Thomas-Mann_Dover.jpg?v=1590770742","url":"https:\/\/neue-galerie-design-shop.myshopify.com\/products\/death-in-venice","provider":"Neue Galerie Design Shop \u0026 Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
