Buddenbrooks by Thomas Mann REVIEW

in accommodating the endless varieties of the human experience wooden brooks is a true literary masterpiece it is narrative perfection

i also read death in venice which in all honesty i didn't really like very much

i read dr faustu several years ago and found it as fascinating as it was cryptic

i found oogie marge a very difficult book not in terms of following the intricacies of the plot or in terms of opaque writing it's quite accessible on that front more in terms of finding it a very dense novel where i struggle to understand quite why i should care about the book and in simpler terms how to have fun with it and have a good experience of it
