Death in Venice: And Seven Other Stories by Thomas Mann

1.0

I picked this up because I wanted to read Death in Venice before watching the film, but I probably should have gotten it from the library or watched the film instead. This is like 99.9 percent exposition and setting and 0.01 percent characterization, which is not something I enjoy. Some pretty sentences but I constantly found myself distracted and having to go back and reread sections that I didn’t enjoy the first time. Not for me.
