Buddenbrooks, Paperback / softback Book

Buddenbrooks Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Discover Mann's Nobel Prizewinning semi-autobiographical and sweeping family epic. The Buddenbrook clan is everything you'd expect of a nineteenth-century German merchant family - wealthy, esteemed, established.

Four generations later, a tide of twentieth-century modernism has gradually disintegrated the bourgeois values on which the Buddenbrooks built their success. In this, Mann's first novel, his astounding, semi-autobiographical family epic, he portrays the transition of genteel Germanic stability to a very modern uncertainty. 'Perhaps the first great novel of the 20th century' New York Times
