A review by mstabinski
Death in Venice: And Seven Other Stories by Thomas Mann

3.0

Very dense and hard to get through. Each story takes on a different tone and writing style. Full of symbolism, taboo topics that push the boundaries of what is acceptable to write about, and plot twists that Thomas Mann is so well known for. I enjoyed most of these stories, and thought about what they meant for days after reading. Only 2 of them were boring to me, but those were super hard to get through. The stories I did enjoy were some of the best I have ever read in short fiction.
