DESCRIPTION

New Translation (Alma Classics Evergreens)
Presented in a sparkling new translation by Sander Berg, Death in Venice contains an introduction by the translator, notes and extra material, including the author’s life and works. Part of Alma Evergreens series of popular classics.

As the ageing Gustav von Aschenbach, a famous author who has recently been ennobled in recognition of his literary achievements, arrives in Venice for a holiday and checks into his Lido hotel, he is struck by the arresting good looks of Tadzio, an aristocratic Polish youth of around fourteen who is sojourning there with his family. Gradually, what starts as a feeling of intense curiosity develops into a profound passion, until Aschenbach begins to follow the adolescent secretly through the streets of the Serenissima and becomes utterly infatuated with his beauty.

Considered by many to be Mann’s masterpiece, Death in Venice, first published in 1912 and based on the author’s own stay in Venice the previous year, is presented here in a sparkling new translation by Sander Berg.
